My wife is an amputee and is restricted to a wheel chair or scooter. We installed a burr handi-lift on our Outback 277RL. It has worked great for her. She will ride her scooter up to the lift, transfer to the lift and ride it up to the thresh hold. Originally we were going to place her wheelchair inside the door but she didn't like taking up the space (though there was plenty of room). Instead I installed oversize wheels on a craftsman mechanics stool. Our total cost was just over $2000.00. The lift with a 45" shaft version was about $1400.00 delivered and $600.00 to install at our dealership. The only thing we would change is a motor that speeds the lift up. It takes about 1 1/2 minutes to go from ground to thresh hold level. In our opinion, it was worth every penny.
