Eric, I'm extremely interested in this thread. I am currently in the process of purchasing a new van. I approached a individual who modifies the vans (happens to be a quadriplegic) and he is supposed to be checking on all of the particulars. According to what I've been told over the last two month

I drove and practiced already.  I'm just a little nervous about such a big vechicle.  I have to back on to a road to get out of my driveway. The driveway  isn't very wide and I share it with my neighbors.  They park on the side of the drive way.  The road isn't high in traffic but it's the

There isn't a right or wrong van, only what's right or wrong for you.  I have a rear entry minivan and will NEVER go back to a side entry.  I can park anywhere without worrying about some idiot parking on the striped area.  Unless you park on the street, I see no advantage to a side entry. Poss

Thank you so much for the info.  I have a question.  What is crystals in the urine?  I take 1500 mg of vitamin C a day.  Since I have been taking this amount I have not had a urinary infection which was not the result of something done at the hospital.  Let me rephrase that, it may have had a sligh
