Downside of the long reach is if you are working in a cramped space, it's kind of large. Also, it's a good bit more than $100 - I think it's $180 if you can catch a sale.

So I bought the orange one today as I need it this weekend to do a brake job on my Tesla, and my old 1.5 ton jack is inadequate for such a heavy car.

Daytona = four colors
Pittsburgh = gray
Daytona = square saddle with rubber pad (which reviews have shown to be rather thin and flimsy)
Pittsburgh = slightly larger round saddle no rubber pad (but plenty of 3rd party options available)
Daytona = slightly beefier gusseting at rear wheels and larger transverse brace underneath
Both built to PASE standards
Internally, in lieu of actual evidence that the Daytona has better hydraulics, we can only assume that they're the same, given the minimal price difference. HF, or its actuaries, express the same level of confidence in both models, with identical 90-day warranties. Gotta step up to the Super Duty for something longer.
The frame of the Daytona has some small upgrades, but the Pittsburgh isn't some outlier from jacks in general and isn't going to fold like a cardboard box under stress. Both are rated at 3-tons.
Or put another way, the difference between the Pittsburgh jack and the Daytona jack isn't going to be the same as between a Pittsburgh ratchet and an ICON ratchet.
$100 for the Daytona is a good deal, and cheaper than it has been for a while. The Pittsburgh isn't on sale, so there's not much of a debate.
Both models are on display in stores, so take a look and see what you eyes tell you are different.
