After a lot of back and forth, think I too am going to go with a 4 post. One of my first jobs during high school was at a Goodyear tire shop and the combination of getting down on your knees to find the frame, it was always a little sketchy being underneath one. You guys that made a real living at it are I'm sure a lot more comfortable under one. I've seen the 4 post displays at mecum auctions with the rolling cross pieces that will hold a small bottle jack for taking off the wheels. Probably only 2 wheels at time, definitely not all 4, but a compromise for stability (at least in my mind), and ease of getting the vehicle in the air in a one man operation. Also as Martin says, with the wheel kit, you can even move the 4 post around if needed. Don't plan on moving it much, but at least have the option.
