Hi everyone, im finally about to drive. Today i got fitted for my new powerchair that i will drive from. I need a powerchair that looks cool, durable, and can get over curves. I'm 6'1 about 260 and i am in a quickie 646 se, i havent had any problems with it except it cant really get up a curve unless i get a running start. I heard about the permobil but i saw it today and it look so bulky. This chair has to be perfect because as we all know the state will not pay for another 5-7 years. Im thinking about getting the toyota sienna minivan but i know this chair has to be the exact fit. please someone give me some advice and send me pics of powerchairs or links to good ones thank u so much.
