A 3-tonne jack would give you more peace of mind (at least for most private cars, sedans, pickup/SUVs), Consider also the few mm difference in size compared with most 2-tonne bottle jack that came with the car, they look almost the same. I find the alligator jack impractical for mobile use because it eat lots of trunk space...
I agree, TS should mention the car make. Baka lowered pa yung car nya, the scissor jack would be sufficient.
