Torklift Ensures Safe Travels for Family After Startling Mishap

KENT, Wash. – Torklift has once again demonstrated its leadership in the RV accessory market by transforming the travel experience for an RV family who suffered a safety setback, according to a company release. Jeanne and Jerred, the full-time RVing couple behind the Instagram account @roadtripswiththebaileys, experienced a common yet often overlooked danger associated with factory RV steps.

Jeanne, in full super-mom mode, was zooming out the RV door when the unthinkable happened. ” One day, I was hurrying out of the door chasing my kiddos, and I missed that last step, went tumbling, and sprained my ankle really really bad, laying me up for two to three months (and possibly more), right during the busiest season of the year!” she said.

In response to this incident, Torklift stepped forward to offer a helping hand by equipping the Bailey family with the GlowStep Revolution. The GlowStep Revolution features a pioneering design that offers infinite adjustability and an Earth to RV connection, allowing it to fit any terrain while providing a firm and reliable foundation. This feature, combined with the steps’ glow-in-the-dark capability, significantly enhances nighttime safety for RV owners.
