I love my SVX

Every time I poke into my SVX, I just further my opinion of what a great car this is. Even when the problems are a pain in the a##. For example, today I had a flat. I've never had to change a flat on the svx. Of course I found the jack well mounted in the trunk. Then I noticed this little black envelope. I wondered what was in there. 2 wheel chucks of course.

And the jack is cool too. Interesting design, again, well thought out.

Now to make my decision whether I keep my svx or not....

happy friday

ken

Now that is a no brainer! You have to make a decision?

Be careful of the jack. It can tip over fairly easily if it is not on good solid ground.

Try sitting in your SVX, in the garage, and blasting music. Kind of cool, yet kind of creepy if you turn out all the lights.

You should show us some pictures.

The jack is sure unique. I used it once to do my oil change because not all lift can go that low(at certain angle) since the SVX has pretty low ground clearance.

I agree Pavan!!! Nobody should get under their car when using this jack without using a jack stand. It is a very weak and unstable jack to begin with.

I used 'both' together to have double protection.
