Here's a helpful hint from someone who's dealt with back issues for 40 years ---turn around and lean your back against the car while pumping - it's more comfortable - and it's more efficient - the spring loaded pump trigger is mostly moved by your middle and forefinger at a point that offers the least amount of leverage when you face the car -- turn your grip around and now those fingers are pushing against a longer lever - easier on your entire body. Of course this message may not be fully appreciated by folks who live in states that still allow the trigger locks. -- Dave
