Default Segway Vehicle Loader

My wife has limited use of her legs, but can stand so uses her P model for mobility. She is dependent on others to load and unload it. Has a system to do this mechanically been developed for an SUV or similar vehicle like for scooters and wheelchairs?

Alfred, here's a link to a recent thread in the "things to buy and sell" area
http://www.segwaychat.com/forum/topi...archTerms=lift

And here's Mel Melinger's lift
http://www.segwaychat.com/forum/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=7047

You may be able to find others by searching under the word "lift" or "hauler."

I have the Segway Hauler, which I recently used to take my 'p' to a local elementary school for a demonstration. I love it, but it might still be more than she will want to deal with.

This is my slightly modified standerd "scooter lift" installed in my Expolrer.

Tatal cost was 650.00 and Ford picked up the tab.

Good luck,
Alan

Pam,

Unable to get these links to work for me. Not sure if I'm doing something wrong.

Probably because the thread was originally posted in April of 2005, and we've changed software since then. You might do a search on lift or hauler and see what you can find.

Pam,

Thanks for checking for me. I'm interested in Mel Melinger's lift if you can find that thread.

Thumbs up Got to use a Segvator yesterday

Dave from Segvator stopped by with a Segvator (and an e-machine) and showed us the Segvator in operation.

Great product, plus we had a customer who put in an order after seeing it.

www.Segvator.com

Plus they also are big DRAFT supporters!
