We have 20 alturnamats. They do not offer the weight displacement plywood offers. Alturnamats will still leave indents in lawns and crack driveways. Sure they last longer than plywood, but I'd rather buy more plywood than buy a new driveway.
How long have you guys had your lifts? By your comments I'm guessing less than a few years. Here is one example. We replaced our track drive sprockets last week to the tune of $824 each. They last a few years. We have had our machine since 2006.
