Hi Kevin,
Just an fyi, not sure if you are getting any help from insurance, medicare, etc. or not on this power chair.? If you are not, you may want to consider purchasing one second hand.? I've bought 2 second hand, the second only because the first one didn't have the power to pull the hills at our fairgrounds, and there are many fun events at our local fairgrounds.? You can get some really good deals on a second hand scooter.? We bought mine through private parties, but when going to a local mobility store for some new crutches he had some great used scooters, and for not any more money than I paid.? His looked newer and I was surprised.? There are so many people who get them and only use for a very short time, and some never even go out of the house.? Unless I can get insurance to pay for me, which is highly unlikely with my current?HMO,?I'll never buy new.

I am wondering who uses Power Wheelchairs on the TMIC?? I cannot use a manual wheelchair because my hands are bad.? ? Would you mind posting which chair you use, what you like or? don't like about it, is it good for indoor or outdoor use or both?? ? I am considering a Pride Go-Chair mainly because it is small? and comes apart for travel. (note: this is not the same as a Go-Go Scooter)? ? Also, is anyone familiar with the wheelchair provider Maxim Mobility in? New Haven, CT? Good or bad?? ? Thanks!? Kevin? ?
