On the side of the youtube video, I saw this:

Not nearly as cool, but pretty cool, and much cheaper I'm sure.

I actually like this one better if it works as good as the the vid shows. There would be several more inches of gut clearance and so far I can still manage to roll over,get on my hands and knees,find something to grab and get back on my feet. The ability to roll over stuff on the floor is a big plus. I wonder about air hoses and light cords.

That is cool, guess I need to think about putting concrete in the shop now,,,, LOL
A friend gave me an old "camping mattress" for lack of a better term.
Its heavy naugahide with 2 inches of foam in about the size of a crib mattress. I can kneel on, lay on it whatever
and don't feel the gravel, easy to clean (but never have, lol) little bulky to store though.
I'd rather do it myself if it's done right or not,,,isn't that what hotrodding is all about

Sure looks handy, or at least FUN! I wonder if they give the same incentives that Ford gave me on a truck, like 0% for 60 months? I went to their web site and they don't post any price, they want you to contact them. Any guesses? I paid 2K for my 9000# lift a few years ago, I'm guessing more than that!

I've had several creepers over the last 20 years, but still use cardboard a lot during all that time. I've come to hate the kind that has the ditch for your arms, it has a hump on each side that gives me a backache. I'd rather have a flat one. My current one has an adjustable head rest, I don't know how I went without it so long, I love it :)

The electric model though neat in how it works is a little high tech and probably overpriced. The second should be far less expensive looks like it would work very well and allows for easy access without having to lift the car every time.
I still have my original creeper made of wood and the funky swiveling castors but haven't used it in years.
Nowadays I just throw a shipping blanket on the ground or just a piece of cardboard.
