    Mobile auto repair station - GIF

    Mobile auto repair station. Video produced with stop-motion. Undeniably gimmicky, but still interesting.

    Gimmicky or not I do like the portable lift except I'm not too sold on it not having solid rails for the scissors to roll on

    That's is the cat's meow.

    There seems to be a lot of space above the storage compartment and in front (behind) the panel that seem to be about two feet inside the back doors. I would guess that is where the generator and air compressor is?

    I am a little disappointed! A lot of effort to blow up the tyres and check the fluid levels and no automatic pop-up shelter, what happens if it rains?
    No, very clever set-up a lot of time, effort and design has gone in to this build.
    Thank you for sharing

    Meh...
    I wonder on actual deployment and set-up time; sure not 19 seconds depicted in GIF. Those elements have to be charged for ROI on the rig, in addition to work ordered by customer.
    But I guess a couple generations brought up on "The Transformers" get entertained.
