Hey people,
I seen this on UPWD website and was impressed and depressed at the same time.
I just find it funny that you can make a lawnmower on a wheelchair frame with both an electric and gas powered plus a generator and remote controlled for the price of $1599 but you can't get a power wheelchair for under $10,000!
Once again I get pissed at these gimp pimps for charging outrageous prices for chairs.
Sorry I had to get it out!

Marko.....this whole system has angered me a long time!! We bitch about how much it cost for healthcare, while a few price controls that are WAYYYY out of control could bring down cost like crazy. Selling those motor scooters is a license to rip off medicare....companies send salesmen into nursing homes and sell everybody a scooter, which are marked up 1000%. I went to a pain doc about my neck one time, and he wnted to see me EVERYDAY....who was going to pay>??? Medicare, of course!!
I feel NO SHAME when i beat the system in my own ways....
