(Types of wheelchairs can vary greatly.)· Purpose of the van. (If it'll be used for long-distance driving as opposed to short distance driving.)· The wheelchair users physical condition and prognosis also factors in to what you will buy.It's important the sales rep at the dealership understand all of these factors that are particular to your situation.
