Default Cripple getting in truck

Made a video of me getting in and out of my truck. Figured I'd share it with you guys.

This is how the pro's do it.

So I have to ask, how many times when you're jumping out of the truck have you missed your chair?

none. Although it has tried to push away while getting in but i've always been able to keep away from the ground.

It does have 4 doors but it's easier to leave the rear door closed because it helps with balance. When you open the door and try to reach down to get the chair you feel like your going to fall out and the door gets in the way of moving the chair around. plus opening the rear door just takes that much more time and space.

Nice Josh, that was quicker than I would have expected. Were you on 2 wheels when you came into the frame in the beginning?
