I've never liked the idea of ramps. Seems like an idiot (like I am capable of being) could easily drive off the high end of the things and do FAR more damage to their body work than jacks generally do.

I grew up watching my dad (and grandfather) do everything we've ever done with jacks and jackstands, and feel comfortable working with them myself. I don't deny the possibility of an accident and I'm careful... but having never had experience with ramps, I feel a lot safer with the IDEA of jacks and jackstands.
