My wife's cousin posted this on her Facebook. I don't have Facebook as i think it's a wast of time. Unlike hunting forums which I believe are "educational". smileys-whistling-823718
Check out this new invention for those who are wheelchair bound. What a great way to gain more independence and freedom. I googled it and it seems to be priced (not including wheelchair) at about $1,900. I didn't think that was outrageous. Not cheap....but not out of sight.

Looks like a great idea to me. Although it looked like the device was moving the wheelchair about 15 mph at least. Tip over would be a concern, plus running the chair that fast might require an update to wheel bearings?

Yeah....tip over on a sharp turn would seem to be a concern. Need something like a "Wheelie Bar"....but on the sides to prevent this. Wheel Bearings? Wheel Bearings? We don't need no stinking wheel bearings!!! rofl

Here's another web site called "Tank Chair" that makes specific track chairs for hunting for the disabled. These are pricy products.....but "TANK" is the key word here!! Tank Chairs |

Yeah.....I don't think "The Tank" needs a winch like my cart does. Hence the name......"the Tank"
