- Does the necessary adaptive equipment require a van, or will another passenger vehicle suffice?
- Can the vehicle accommodate the equipment that needs to be installed?
- Will there be enough space to accommodate your family or other passengers once the vehicle is modified?
- Is there adequate parking space at home and at work for the vehicle and for loading/unloading a wheelchair?
- Is there adequate parking space to maneuver if you use a walker?
- What additional options are necessary for the safe operation of the vehicle?
If the vehicle, adaptive devices or modifications are being paid for by a third party such as insurance you will need to check to see if there are any limitations or specifications you need to take in to consideration. You will want to get this in writing to eliminate any unpleasant surprises in the future.
Remember you will need to have insurance on the vehicle from the time of purchase.
