Question Vehicle Lift. 2 or 4 post ? ? ? ?

Decisions, decisions.
The more I look, the more undecided I am.
I have a nice new building with room for either a 2 post or a 4 post lift.
Each have their pros and cons.
From what I've gathered:

The 4 post does not need to be anchored to the floor (but can be) and is mobile with casters with or without an auto on it. Very nice ! It is for a combination of service as well as overhead storage allowing a vehicle to park underneath. Cool !

The 2 post NEEDS to be anchored, is great for service, overhead vehicle storage ...... not sure but probably not recommended. More versatile lifting arm configuration might be a plus. Price is generally a bit less than the 4 post, but not really an issue at the moment.

If any of you would be so kind as to contribute your personal experiences and preferences in order for me to finalize my decision, I would be much appreciative.
This would be just for hobby, personal use in maintaining my ever growing fleet of toys and daily drivers. Nothing over a 3/4T truck.

I'm leaning toward the 4 post, but am still on the fence.
(saw some on display at Carlisle last week ... Backyard Buddy was one)
Thanks kindly.
