Once you work under a 2 post lift, you won't consider anything else. You can do everything from brakes to transmissions. I'm 70 years old and spent many years under a single post and a drive on lift. The drive on lifts were just like a 4 post lift is now, but with a single air over hydraulic ram. I always wondered If I wouldn't be just as well off with an end jack and a creeper. Rotary was the old reliable brand, but there are other good ones out there, But I would stay away from cheap Chinese stuff. If a jack falls, you should have had jack stands on it. If a lift falls, and some of them do, you can hope you are quick enough to get out of the way.

I have been looking at a Mohawk 20,000. Our day cabs weigh about 14k and our sleepers about 16k, but I'm not sure where my lift points would land with the fuel tanks. It sure would be nice for my GMC 550s and my 600 GMC with a 525 Holmes.
