EMC is much more then a joystick, when it comes to driving. There is a control panel for operating the vehicle accessories and optional equipment. Again, much is dependent on the user's ability to operate various equipment. This is why an evaluation is required. Even for seasoned drivers. Best Wishes In a message dated 10/24/2015 1:35:47 P.M.

You are right...money dictates everything. I could not buy a new one if my life depended on it.I think EMC electronic controls START at $50,000 or so. Check them out on YouTube. They are sophisticated and amazing, but still require considerable faith. New controls lean heavily on voice activation. I just don't know about that. ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: <_wheelchair@aol.com_ (mailto:wheelch...@aol.com) > Date: Saturday, October 24, 2015 Subject: [QUAD-L] Drive From Chair?

But before spend any money, you should consider getting evaluated by a Driving Rehab Evaluator to help determine what is best for YOU. It could be a van or a truck and maybe a tractor or motorcycle. Once the best mode has been determined, then the task of finding the best certified company to do it. That company might be in your back yard or it might be on the other side of the country. Electric Driving Controls must be installed by a certified installer. Best Wishes In a message dated 10/23/2015 10:22:35 P.M.

I saw a big 4x4 pickup, but it had a big lift system, instead of a drive-up ramp that I'd prefer. Are there any SUVs? Thanks, Greg
