It is not a gimmick, I use it every time I go out. Imagine being stuck on a sharp driveway incline, not able to go forward or back without a terrible scraping noise. Believe me you never want to hear that sound.

I wholeheartedly recommend the lift system if you live in an urban area - if you live in the country you might not need it.
