True--a mistake was made getting the wrong van but as a quad sometimes things can work in your favor...Perhaps you can clean up the Van you bought and sell it locally or on Craigslist for ALL your money back OR even make a profit off it-- to put towards a different Van. I have found that things don't always work out fast as i'd like but many times turn out for the best! . Some towns or cities have public transportation such as CALL A RIDE here in St. Louis, Mo. area, that may get you around for a while. I heard that bigger cities like Chicago or some in California have great public wheelchair transportation access. (hope things work out for you ! ) Dan H.****

Taking charge of one's life is so important these days. Allowing others, including Government Agencies, to make decisions for you is much too risky. In your case, those making decisions for your transportation are not doing you right and I would hold their feet to the fire. I would suggest that you become more involved with your present and future. I wish you the best. Best Wishes In a message dated 4/27/2014 7:05:19 P.M.
