Has anyone employed the Vevor 7000 automobile lift for their CX-90? It bears a resemblance in design to the Quick Jacks, yet is more economical. I examined the Quick Jacks 8000 TLX, but it lacks sufficient length to accommodate the jacking points on the CX-90. I am seeking car lifts compatible with both the CX-90 and my 2022 Mustang, and the Vevor 7000 is the sole option that accommodates both vehicles.
I am curious if anyone has utilised these.

I observe that you are considering the Vevor 7000 for managing both your CX-90 and your Mustang. Identifying a suitable lift for the CX-90's extended wheelbase can undoubtedly pose a challenge. Have you succeeded in locating the maximum lift point spread on the Vevor? Incorporating that information may encourage others with comparable lifts to contribute.

I have not experimented with the Vevor lift or QuickJacks; however, I thought you might find this information useful in the interim. The CX-90 features central jack points at both the front and rear, suitable for elevating the vehicle onto jack stands. The jack point features a visible steel crossmember marked with an embossed 'X'. At the back, the differential casing functions as a lifting point. Essentially identical to your Mustang, in fact. Alternatively, my BRZ.
My spouse's previous automobile lacked central jack points. Only the pinch welds. That transformed typically straightforward tasks such as tyre rotation into a significant inconvenience.
For those who elevate the rear section: I am uncertain whether the CX-90's all-wheel-drive system will engage the front wheels when the rear is raised, thus it is advisable to secure the front wheels with chocks if you lift the back end. In a rear-wheel drive automobile, the gearbox and parking brake do not secure the front wheels, allowing the vehicle to move freely when the rear wheels are elevated.

I am uneasy about elevating the rear section through the differential. The two aluminium fins are insufficiently designed to bear that level of weight due to their limited surface area. I attempted to perform a tyre rotation, and it was quite a hassle. I had insufficient space in the pinch welds to utilise a jack and jack stands. I was required to repeatedly adjust the jack and relocate the jack stands at each of the four corners. The duration required to elevate and lower the vehicle exceeded that of the tyre rotation itself. A simpler method must exist. I am inclined to purchase the Vevor 7000 lift. I was anticipating that someone on this forum has utilised these and can provide feedback before I proceed.
