A number of years ago I considered a pit for a proposed new =
construction.
I found a company (don=92t recall the name, but a good =91puter search =

for a garage pit.  Very nicely designed unit, with lighting, steps, =
sliding top=20
units, etc.  Just a suggestion for something to look at.

Eric - With all your projects, have you considered a walk-in pit?  I =
believe a typical hole in the ground pit is now frowned upon, but if you =
have part of your property with enough slope, you could make it so you =
drive in at the top and walk in at the bottom.  If there is no actual =
pit, there should be no danger of fluid or gas buildup.

They you could drive anything you have over it.
