They really tried to get this thing out there without doing much market exploration. Their premise was it was going to be better than a 'modified' minivan because it was designed and built from the ground up. They gave a bunch away to places like the Rehab Institute of Chicago, etc. It really was a junkbox. One air bag, no passenger seat, road like a lumber wagon, heat/AC was awful and built like garbage. The President of VGM is now working for a Bus Co. and these guys will never be back and somebody's pockets are much fuller as a result. For the money that was given to VGM, all of us could have new vans and live in new accessible homes!!
