Gerard Collins is at it again!

Yet another superdeluxe, informative and genuinely hilarious video:

The system itself seems like a rather lengthy install and is just as expensive as getting one of those "shopping cart" looking things. The net underneath is to put the front roof panels. Do we really need a motor here or would a simple "mechanical advantage" pulley system work just as well? Not sure if this product is was for me. But the video was.

I paid $163 total for my hoist system. It works great. It's not motorized and it honestly takes longer to take the bolts out than to actually crank it up and off.

I like having the positive control raising and lowering with a pulley system verse using an app for something so simple. As for the panels I just put a moving blanket on the top then put the panels there. Just because there is tech it doesn't make it faster or better, sometimes it makes things more complicated and more expensive.

Any pictures and parts list would be appreciated. I got a 12 foot ceiling with a garage door opener... and $200+ gift card from Lowe's to use.

This product has a similar plan for the 4 door middle panel. You put it on top of rear part of the top.

What system did you use? The price sounds right too me.

He is a personable presenter for sure. But informative? Now so much.

No information about garage requirements. Looks like he’s got a 10’ ceiling. What if yours is 8’?

No information about how it installs in the garage. Especially given that he had somebody else install it. Where’s the excuse in not documenting some of THAT? Kick back in your lawn chair with your sippy cup and film the guys doing the install.

No information about how it attaches to the top itself. This is the most important thing to me (and I’m sure many others). Could it damage the seals hanging there for weeks? Would be nice to know. Even nicer to see why.

But he did cover an equally important piece of info well: price. And whoah buddy. YIKES! Not for everybody. But I kinda guessed that early on in the video soon as I saw those dual motors. One motor can accomplish the same job for half the price.

I saved so much money on my $30,555 Manual 2-Door 2021 Base Bronco, that maybe I can splurge for this.

I want to hoist my RTT off my Bronco and need each pulley/motor mounted to my ceiling apart from the other pair OUTSIDE the width of my RTT such that after hoisting to max pulley height, I can ratchet strap the rest to get snug against the ceiling. Do you think this system or one of their others will do this job. It is VERY important that the pulley system NOT directly above the footprint of the RTT as I need it snug to the ceiling to open my garage door.

That price is WAY too steep for my blood, but I do love the video. Great job Gerald...please keep at it.

This guy spent all that money on a hoist with an app.....and still uses a corded drill?
