He tows them with the 82, but used to do it with the 54. I'm thinking that's what you meant by a cripple mobile. I could see him doing something like that with a panel, but he wouldn't be caught dead in a ford.

thats exactly what i meant. i am also a parapalegic and i want to find a panel someday and make it a drive in kind of deal rather than transfer and disassemble the chair lie i do now in my DD. currently my pickup sits too high for me to get into. people tell me i should make it sit lower and all i can say is "why would i want to do that? i already spent too much money lifting it." lol. ill get around to it "someday"
