I bought a steel low profile, long reach Daytona jack for less than half of the Snap on that it's a copy of. Nice jack. I haven't used it for 10 years, so I can't testify to it's longevity, but I'm satisfied with it so far.

Daytona does a few models of aluminum "race" jacks priced from $150 to $300. All are rated at 95% or above, if you trust reviews. HF has sales all the time. Worth a look at least.

Be interested to hear from real users of the Daytona stuff.

Bought an alum HF Daytona about 2 years ago - well worth the money so far - picks up my heavyweight COPO (3450 Empty ) with no problem and fits under the wheelie bars .
