Guest guest Posted May 18, 2001 Report Share Posted May 18, 2001 Bill, I bought it through Access Vans. They convert the vans after the customer buys them from a Dodge dealer in Tempe, Arizona. It is a ramp van, the passenger side sliding door opens and a ramp drops down for wheelchair access. It may be large enough for two wheelchairs if one of them is docked in the driver's place or the front passenger place. I live in DeRidder, Louisiana. This is a very nice van--leather seats, CD changer, etc. It just isn't for someone who needs to drive grandchildren to ball games, etc. I did not realize this until after the fact. This has turned out to be the most expensive mistake I've ever made. The day I picked it up last week was great. I stopped in Lafayette on the way home from Grosse Tete and went shopping in the mall by myself which I have not been able to do for a very long time. I felt so empowered when I rolled out of that van! The next day my grandchildren wanted to ride to the game in CC's new van. What a rude awakening! And I have a new grandbaby on the way, no way I can put a baby in a carseat that is in the rear seat. I haven't looked into local Auto trader magazines yet, I just decided this today, but when I make up my mind---that's it. C Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted May 18, 2001 Report Share Posted May 18, 2001 I bought a van that didn't work out for us either. i kept it 2 years and got another one.

I just got this van a week ago, but iot is not working out for me because there isn't room for my grandchildren in it. I'm going to get another minivan and put a wheelchair lift on the back, but I would really like to sell this one as soon as I can. I'm so frustrated about this. My husband doen't care what I do about it and we're both not happy about losing money, but I have made up my mind and have already started locating a new van. What's really bad is that I waited for 3 months for this one to come in and when it did I gave my old one to my son and daughter-in-law. Any suggestions on how to sell this week old conversion van will be greatly appreciated. >> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted May 19, 2001 Report Share Posted May 19, 2001 , where do you live? did you buy it from a dealer or a private party? Is it new or used? Do you have AUTOTRADER magazine where you live? I have a friend looking for a van with a lift but it must be able to accomadate 2 wheelchairs inside. regards, BC ----- Original Message ----- From: <C1520@...> < > Sent: Friday, May 18, 2001 3:43 PM Subject: [] conversion van for sale > Does anyone know some good sites to list a van for sale?

Guest guest Posted May 19, 2001 Report Share Posted May 19, 2001 , it sounds like what my friend is looking for however we live in California. Contact the dealer immediately and plead your case. By law they owe you nothing but you never know. Maybe Access Vans can also be of help. Good luck.
