Where do you guys place the jack under your car, when jacking it up? is one spot safer over others or is it all the same pretty much as long as you have the jack in a secure area?

Depends on what I'm jacking it up for. Either about a foot behind the front wheel to jack up that whole side, the cross bar in the front to jack up the entire front, or the tow hook in the rear to lift the whole rear.
