I got the rear wheel drive also. The sales guy recommended I get the rear wheel drive since that is what I am use to for my past 3 chairs over 21 yrs. He said the center wheel drive turns a lot differently. Since he is a wheelchair user himself, I went with his recommendation.

Subject: [QUAD-L] new wheelchair!

Just got my new wheelchair yesterday. It's been 8 yrs since my last one. The main parts include:
Invacare Torque 3 with Formula CG Tilt/Recline Powered Seating
MK6i electronics with sip-n-puff controller
The Savant Headrest - http://www.symmetric-designs.com/the-savant-2.html
Roho High Profile Quadtro Select Cushion

I fairly happy with it but am having a little trouble getting use to new MK6 electronics. It is so different from the old MK4 electronics. The new headrest is much nicer from my old one and supports my head better.
Total cost... $31,065!
