The stock jack is a scissor jack and actually does a good job for the rare uses it gets. Why not just get a better scissor jack? They always work, don't take up much space, don't require electricity or hydraulics, have a decent mechanical advantage.
But I have to ask, why worry about a jack for the road? Unless you're planning some long trips where you have to be self-sustaining in multiple ways, the regular jack does the job just fine. It's a good idea to have a way to chock a wheel or two, but to change a tire it's fine. My old hydraulic floor jack (25 years old!) died last summer and and wouldn't lift the car off the stands. So I pulled out an old scissors jack I had lying around and it did the job.
