**rpcoombs** · 02-24-2005, 05:18 PM

I've heard that TM is studying a mechanism which would electrically power the raise/lower function. It doesn't seem to be too hard given the present system's counterweight (torsion bar) system. I think that would almost double sales given the fact that the TM's price is generally only in the reach of us "Baby Boomers" and we find it harder to "get it up"! I only hope they will make a retrofit kit given the fact I have invested over $3,000 in solar panels, custom options, etc. What say you (not to steal from a right wing talk radio host --- wonder which side of the aisle most TM' owners are but that's another question)? Cheers, Dick
