i have been a quad and driving since 1995. my vans have been paid for out of pocket, i received no law suit or insurance money. i paid off my last van october 2011 and it was totaled in an accident january 2012. if anyone is in the position to offer a deal or knows of one please contact me.

I have a similar problem. My van is 21 years old and was paid for out of my benefits in times when household money was much better, but now I need a new one but can't manage they cost. If I win the lottery tonight, I'll hook you up, but don't hold your breath... I've been saying I'll win the lottery since my injury in 1990. Good luck though.

With your injury level, can you not transfer into a car? Just curious.
