I will now be able to get under my cars with no ramps. Pretty cool.
Wise move Joe. I saw a video where a guy shot a video of the tornado headed for his house. He was in the process of entering his underground storm shelter with his house in the foreground of the video and the tornado in the background. After the tornado had passed, he opened the hatch and his house was totally gone. That underground shelter saved his family's lives.
