Thanks Tina for the title! We picked up the rv today and are staying just across the state line from Pensacola at the Gulf Shores/Pensacola West KOA in Lillian AL. We wanted to stay close in case we found any problems with the lift. No problems that we can find. I cried when Ronnie went up in the rv tonight on his brand new lift. The guys that did the install are supposed to email me the pics they took during the install process as well as to Keystone for their future reference and as a courtesy since Keystone sent them all the blueprints for them to use for reinforcement info. They said that since this is a Toy Hauler and the garage area is built to carry 2000 pounds back there they had really good structure to work with. So here are the pics so far.
They are finishing up with some of the last minute trim and stuff.

A little closer look.

Reference - your last lift photograph...

Now, I know you lean toward garish...but did you really have to have neon lights installed on the lift? Jeesh...

Wow :o , Vickie, that looks awesome :!: That is a great addition not only to get the chair up and in, but anything else you want to load up - say a ton of bricks for Mitch ;) ! I know that will make things easier for both of you in your adventures. Enjoy yourselves and celebrate the joy of new things to come. I like the neon lights :lol:

Great job on the lift - looks like you found a quality place to take care of it for you.

Really happy for both of you; anything that makes life a bit easier is always a good thing. Nice to know installers did a great job too.
Are you already planning all your trips for the new year?
