Wheel Chair Lift -

Question : What are different types of wheelchair lifts that can be installed into a minivan? Please include cost options
I need to find out more information on purchasing a wheelchair lift for my minivan. I have a handicapped 5 year old daughter and I know nothing about wheelchair lifts, the cost etc. I need something that I can use a long time (as she grows, the wheelchair will also). Please give me a good local (Portland OR) resource, information, or just your experience/knowledge on the subject. Specifics... #1 What are the different types? #2 Where (Portland, OR) can I get one within a week? #3 What is the range in cost?

Answer:
Hello, in my experience the lift depends on the make/model of the minivan and the model of the wheelchair. There are an assortment of lifts out there as you might have noticed and most places have them in stock and ready to ship. For a lift that will be able to accommodate a growing child you're probably looking at around $1000+ installation. I pulled the pricing information from: http://www.discountramps.com/wheelchair_lift_page.htm . On a side note those lifts (the Harmar) come with 3 year manufacturer warranty which is longer than most. Also, here is a little more helpful information about those lifts: http://www.discountramps.com/articles/requirements-harmar-lifts.htm . I hope this helps you on your mission to find the best wheelchair lift for your daughter. :)

Question : What fuel-efficient cars with a hitch could carry a wheelchair and lift?
I need to find a fuel-efficient car/crossover suv that can handle a #2 hitch; back-end attached lift and small powerchair, is this possible?

Answer:
I work for M.C. Mobility Systems, Inc. ( http://www.mcmobilitysystems.com ) and Ability Van Rentals ( http://www.abilityvanrentals.com ) and we recommend that customers who are concerned about fuel efficiency go with a Honda or a Toyota. Unfortunately, the additional weight of a wheelchair lift or conversion package will effect the fuel efficiency, but these two makes are probably the best solutions. Hope this helps!
