I purchased one of the large Sears jacks on sale for $99.99.

The big ones lift higher, have a longer handle (easier lifting and jack
placement), a larger wheel base (more stable)  and are heavier.

I regularly jack up the entire front end of my 78 plymouth fury to change
oil etc. with very little effort.

for what it's worth,
