Mine is inside, but I have a 10.5 foot ceiling.
I guess it depends on the car you have. The shorter the car,
the higher you can put it up. With my MG magnette I can't stand
completely up underneath the car, I have to stoop a little. But
with a roadster, I can put it higher than I would want it to be.
Still, often if I am doing a long job I don't even put it
up to standing height, I use a roll around chair and put it
around chest-high. It also allows me to more easily reach
tools since they are lying on the floor at arms reach.
Get out that measuring tape!
