Well call Big Foot in MI directly. They might still have it on sale for $1985 (or something like that). Plus they will do the install. I think another member only charged him like $300 or $500?? Whatever it was I thought it was very reasonable.

IMO its worth it. Im not very old (yet) but its already a PITA to try and level with the lego blocks (or wooden block). I have spent 30 plus minutes trying to get it "good enough". Then some will move on you and mess up what should have been perfect and you have to start all over again.

Now it takes about "35 seconds" (According to BF) to deploy but with mine its manual so I might spend 1 or 2 minutes extra to get it just right. So lets say 5 minutes to be safe and all I have to do is press a few buttons.

Sometime I will put one or two lego blocks under the jack pads to get extra lift but I just made a pole with a hook on it so I can push the blocks under and reteive them without getting under the RV.

But to each his own. I think its worth it but if you only use them 2 or 3 times a year it may NOT be worth it.
