It is sold as a excercise stepper but it makes a great wide and adjustable step to get into a minivan, etc for just $50.



I needed something for my new Honda minivan which I bought so I could load my father's power chair in the back. By the way, cheap ramps on available on ebay.


This is a Toyota forum. Why should we care about how hard it is to get into Hondas?

why not take your good news and put it on the honda NG . SeeYa later.

That's like the test pilot who was doing an evaluation on a new aircraft that he didn't like, "It's extremely hard to get into the cockpit, I recommend it be made impossible"

So, you are all picking on him because his big mistake in his otherwise helpful post is that he mentioned the brand of his minivan or SUV. It could apply to any brand, including Toyotas. Rick

Art has a history here. Don't let it bother you.

Great idea, Art. Thanks for sharing.

Don't listen to those "Tom Delay For President" fans. Keep posting your great ideas so we can all learn from them.
