Call me crazy, but I've never felt the need for a truck stand.

Also...grammar is your friend. Apostrophes where they don't belong with Z's where S's belong is not a good business model.

The above lines typed by you for your video:

CAL ME KRAZE, BUT IV NEVER FELT THE NEED 4 A TRUK STAND

ALZO...GRAMUR IZ UR FREND. APOSTROPHE'Z WERE THEY DONT BELAWNG WIFF Z'S WHERE Z'S BELONG IZ NAWT A GUD BIZNIZZ MAWDUL.

This is what's going through reasonably intelligent customers' minds. I'm not calling you dumb...but it's easier to make a good impression with proper grammar when you're trying to make a buck with a broad target audience. All constructive criticism...nothing insulting meant by what I've said.

Good luck!

While we are on the subject, I built two of these last year, bearings in the lower hub, one is a general and another is made for the Savvy.

The 1st one I built two years ago and I shortend the front area to make it more adaptive to spaces (that tote used to be my work shop [&:])


I built this one a couple weeks ago,it's more sturdier and I can flip the truck over to work on it.
