Just spent Friday and Saturday under my 1er on jack stands. Not (too) worried about safety, but (a) at the current ride height, my long reach floor jack can't reach the front center jack pad, so it's a multi jack proposition; and (b) getting the car up on 4 jack stands is a PITA (*and* I inevitably forget that from the highest elevation, whichever end I lower last is too high for the floor jack, so by the time I remember that, I'm into multiple jacks, weird and dangerous looking 3-point balancing acts, moving the long jack back and forth and ... Entirely self inflicted, but I'm still going to use that on the list of excus - I mean reasons to get a QuickJack or one of those nifty looking 2-post MaxJacks).
Not to mention that having all 4 wheels in the air quickly and easily for any of our 3 vehicles is just soooo much easier.
