i was lookin around for a new jack today, and cant decide betweena a typical floor jack or a bottle jack. I was kinda leaning towards hte bottel jack since its so much smaller and can fit in the trunk more easily. but i want to get some opinions too.

is your car tall enough for a bottle jack? i had to get a floor jack specifically for low profile cars and i still have to roll over a 2x4 if i want to jack it up from the radiator support..

floor jack is nice to use. PLEASE USE jack stands as well. floor jack wheels can slip and you could end up with a car sitting on you.

i have a cheapy craftsman floor jack, but i stick the oem honda jack under there after i lift the car to how high i need it.
