Great ideas Gregg. Stay safe and healthy Sir.
Awesome option for the large fur babies. Your vid’s are always very detailed and informative.
Glad you like them! Thanks Keith.

We have one of the PetLoaders for our dogs to get up into our Freightliner M2 106. Works great, and stows easily. Highly recommend PetLoader products!
Hi Ernie, It is great to hear from other owners. Thanks for taking a moment to share your positive comment.
Gregg
Nice. I will get some photos to share ideas when we get closer to retirement. They have the same floorplan in a 5W as our current TT and then it will be time to figure out the steps. On our current Chevy 2500 she has a step tethered on a parachute cord she pulls it up with after getting up to the running board. With 2 bad shoulders and a motorcycle knee, getting into our trucks isn't easy. -Dave
Hi there! We are all feeling a bit less nimble as time goes on. Me too.
Gregg
Excellent solutions, Gregg! Thanks for another great video!
Howdy Mad Dog,
Thanks for taking the time to watch my video! Drive safe.
Gregg
Fantastic Solution!
Glad you think so!
Gregg
Thanks for sharing, Gregg! We currently have a Solvit ramp we've been using for our Golden Retrievers that's worked fine for the back of the SUV, but the angle gets a bit steep getting into the 3/4 ton PU. The steps will give us an opportunity to take the big dog with us!
Hello Gene,
We can't leave our special family members behind! Thanks for your continued interest and support of my channel.
Gregg
Good deal and thanks, hope we get to work with ya Post June or July ( God Willing and the Creeks don't Rise)
Oh my - you REALLY are watching lots of videos! Wait, wait, let me get ahead of you and make some more. Slow down!
Ha! Gregg
I have a few rather 'stout' driving couples O-T-R whom these steps would also benefit. Oh wait, you said upto 300 lbs. 😅😂😅😂😅😂😅😂
Grand idea for our twin 100 lbs Bloodhound sisters though. Thanks!
Hello hello! I have another step system that has a bit higher capacity for the stout folks. It is tied and mounted into all four factory frame points. It is called CANSteps.
Thanks as always for your support and interest in our rvhaulers.
Gregg
The pet loader is a great ideal. I think it would be nicer if it could set on the top step and be just below the door so you could leave them on one side and just open the door if the dog needs to go out instead of you having to get out and set them up before you can let the dog out or in
Thanks for the thoughts - yes, that would certainly be more convenient.
Gregg
That's a good idea for safety, but it won't help someone with a bad hip, weak legs or a bad arm.
Something like the pet stairs is a better option for that.
If you really want to help those that are mobile challenge, put an electric lift in place.
Have it fold up to hug the side of the truck when it is not in use.
You'll also need to have control buttons located somewhere on the lift or in the door where it can be easily reached by the user.
The person riding the lift can use the door to steady themselves and you can also add a hand rail to the side of the door post where the door opens.
Hi Scott,
The lift is certainly an available option too. I'm glad you reminded us all of that possible solution. Thanks for watcgi g and sharing that thought.
Gregg
@@rvhaulers I'd love to see a video of the lift for people. Especially if there is one rated for 500 lbs as I'm 6' 10" tall and weigh nearly that. I also have bad knees and climbing a ladder style step would be difficult.
And I love it because of my dog can get in the truck. Price of it and the truck also$ ?.
Hi Robert,
You can find the pricing on the steps here: CLICK HERE for the petloader website: www.petloader.com/shop/
For some great examples of our RVHauler pricing, I have quite a few past and present build pricing examples on my inventory page here:

Thanks for asking! Gregg
Would love to have a set of bolt on steps to fit a 860
Hello Charles,
It is on the list - some day! Gee, the RVHauler conversions and bed build work stuff gets in the way sometimes of expanding our product line.
Gregg
any solutions for a person confined to a wheelchair? (Not me -just curious to see if you can think of anything!)
Hi Brian. YES I have the solution.
Check out this video for a possible wheelchair loading solution.
