All I can say is DAYUM, I wish my HOUSE were that big, much less the garage.

Well the wife and I have been looking around for our next house, something with a pole barn or space to build one.
Long story short, we've found a house that is a SERIOUS fixer upper, can you say gut? The fun part is that yes it does come with a pole barn, it's a little small for my taste (insert snicker here) at 40 x 120 feet which = 4800 Square feet! Just thought I could share that little info with you guys here, I don't think anyone in my fmaily would understand the fun of having that pole barn!

If, by four post you mean you drive the rig onto it, and, by two post you mean you drive the rig between the posts and swing in arms under the frame/body, then:
The two post is best for tire removal, brakes, axle housing swaps, and suspension work, as well as for removing bodies from the frame. The four post is good for driveline work and pretty much everything else. Also, some 4 post lifts can store a vehicle in the up position so another can be driven under to save space. Edit: I'd consider the 4 post first because it would be larger and require more placement planning. Unless you plan to swap some cabs/bodies, jacks and stands can substitute for a two post fairly well. Speaking within my understanding of 2 & 4 post lifts, of course.

I went with the 2 post Dover Rotary 10,000 lbs. I can store a car on the up position with it also. You just let it down on one of the stops. I'm very happy with it so far.
