Hi Jude,
Yes, I've been putting many hours and days of research into power
wheelchairs. I tried one in my condo
yesterday, but even the Pride Go-Chair, a small chair, was too big for
our tiny bathroom. I'm going to
try a Jazzy 1113 next. It's supposed to have a small turning circle. i

Jude,
Yes, my small suv, a Subaru Forester, does not have a wide enough hatch
opening for
a powerchair that does not come apart.
Thanks for the info.

I PURCHASED A PRIDE GO GO ELITE SCOOTER IN APRIL. I LOVE IT. I HAVE USED
IT FOR SHOPPING, AND ATTENDING OUTSIDE FUNCTIONS LIKE OUR STATE FAIR. IT IS

I have a Quantum 610 and love it. From the joystick I can elevate my legs
and recline flat. What I have not tried though is having the base facing
forward and pivoting the chair to the side (like sitting at a table to eat).
They even had a color chart like a car lot. There are also 4 speeds

Can you walk? I am paralyzed and unable to use my motorized chair
because i can't get in it. I *just* learned that the design is *not* for the
paralyzed, that there is another design better for the
Invacare Ranger II - rear wheel, loved this chair and I was more mobile then
so I ran that thing all over and at 6-7mph.
