Have you tried it out yet...?? Does it work as expected?

EDIT: Well I took the plunge and snagged one before this thread drives up up the demand/price for this toy.

wow, yah, thats another good one. You can also see how your alignment specs are just by measuring tire inner vs. outer vs. middle after a run... i got this one ive got now a WHILE ago to work on home HVAC stuff, and ive used it for everything from setting up the BBQ to popping popcorn to taking the baby's temperature (and the temperature of everything else in sight ;-p)
