Updated review:With modifications this works well for me to be able to get my Drive Scout scooter into the back of my SUV. I've had a spinal fusion and am limited to how much I can bend/lift and I didn't want to put a hitch on my new car.I took off the wire/hook and replaced it with the exact length of nylon winch rope and included hook (U Creative 50ft synthetic winch kit). I used 1x12 hook loop straps to hold it closed. Definitely needed hairpin hooks. I reassembled it with the loose wires attached to the back rather than the front of the top piece to ensure enough give to be able to attach to the hooks on the base.The scooter was still a bit close to the ground, so I got Homeon Wheels RV Leveling Blocks 2.0 and gorilla taped 2 blocks side by side with 2 of the ramps to drive the scooter front up on which gave just enough clearance to get the lift under.The mods lightened it considerably and made it much easier to manage for losing and unloading.Initial review: This came pretty banged up, but I was able to get things unbent enough to assemble.Do yourself a favor and buy hairpin-type pins before assembly, you will be glad you did. Mine did NOT have slots, but had hooks on the bottom piece. Note that those are to hold one end of the 2 wires, so make sure you assemble the right directions. The instructions are garbage.Also do yourself another favor and buy a couple of Velcro straps to keep it from randomly unfolding when moving it.There is WAY more cable than is needed. Perhaps the company would do well to save some $$$ on that and include good pins, straps, and decent instructions.I bought this to lift my scooter into the back of my SUV (no hitch). I'll update the review based on performance when I'm done
