Default RV Power Lift

Just got a call back from Bob Eickhoff concerning the RV Power Lift. He said he hasn't done a lot with it, as other things have taken precedence. With selling the company, he's been busy with that, and he needs to work out the details of the Power Lift in relation to the Trailmanor company under a different owner. He will call me back when he's ready to install one, as he hasn't been out this way (NH) in a while, and this gives him an excuse to get back out here. He doesn't have a price worked up yet, but if I'm willing to be a reference, I'll get a deal. Sweet! I'm happy to have my TM be a guinea pig!

Be nice if we could see plans, blueprints, or installation instructions. Once upon a time I was a mechanical/electrical engineer & might be able to help work bugs out.

I got the impression that he has it complete, bugs worked out, etc., just hasn't installed one on anything than the model they used in the videos. I could be wrong about how many he's installed. But I figured since he asked if I'd be willing to be a contact for potential buyers, then he hasn't installed any yet.

I'm assuming he has a patent on it, and all that info, plans, etc. would be filed with the US patent office, and it's public record.

Well my feeling is that TM was great on innovation but not so on implementation. My expertise is in getting things into production and QA. It takes a team.
