    Whats wrong with the jack that comes with the car........ they SUCK.

    If you need to be that concerned about the factory jack and its less than ideal but yet perfectly adequate abilities, then it's your car that sucks and is a big piece of dog turd.
    The perceived need to carry a floor jack or something other than the factory one tells me you have bigger problems.
    IMO.

    Or, it means I don't want to deal with some cheap scissor jack when I do my car, or help others.
    Same reason I have a T wrench and breaker bar.
    It only happens in the pouring rain, so why not have the right stuff?

    The jack in the car is ok but i want a backup in case that jack fails when i have to change a flat. I like having a backup the backup just in case.

    Have no plans or desire to be under the car with any type of jack holding the car up.

    How on earth did you not know you had another w2 coming?
    I get lots of them. Job hazard. In any year, I have my corp taxes for my company and its payroll, plus personal taxes and lots of w2's from other companies I've worked for over the year through a union.

    Indeed.

    I'm all for better tools and the right tools for the job, but yikes. Besides, mechanical jack fail? When does that happen?
