I am offering a 1993 Chevy G20 full size, handicapped equipped van for sale. This van is equipped with hand controls, a power driver's seat which goes way back, then turns more than 90 degrees to the right to allow a person to transfer from a wheel chair into it. The seat also raises way up for ease of transferring.

The van also has automatic side doors which can be operated by a remote control, or operated at the right rear tailight via a magnet on the key ring. It uses fiber optic cables and power unit to achieve this. The hand controls, automatic seat, automatic door openers, and fiber optic capability were installed by Captain Vantastic in Esopus, NY.

The van is also equipped with a Braun lift, which works perfectly.

In addition, Captain Vantastic installed the tv screen, surround sound system with a sub woofer, two DVD players, and the power system which powers it. He also put in a new radio and 4 new speakers for it.

This van has 61,678 original miles on it and has been very well maintained. I bought it on Ebay in 2006 after my son became paralyzed in an auto accident. It has some small dents and dings, but has never been involved in a serious accident. The body is in excellent shape for its age as you can see by the pictures. The paint is original and still shines remarkably well for a van that is 20 years old. The paint has faded on the raised roof, which is fiberglass, but I still wax it all the time to keep it looking as good as it can.

I have put a lot of money in it to keep it in top shape. The tires are new, and the brakes, rotors, brake lines, fuel tank and fuel lines were all replaced within the last couple of years. In addtion, I had the whole front end suspension replaced. I was trying to do a little bit at a time and eventually would have done the whole vehicle over had we decided to keep it. I also had a rebuilt alternator installed in it.

I also replaced the two front captain chairs ($400 each). Captain Vantastic also did that job. The rest of the interior is in good shape, except for a few tears in the carpet and some stains as well. The stains were there when I bought it and I tried just about everything to get them out, but nothing worked all that well. The vehicle comes with the hold downs to secure a person sitting in their wheelchair in the rear. I have all the hold down straps as well. The back seat also folds down into a bed. It works, but we never used it for that.

The immediate need that the vehicle has is to get the A/C working. The compressor siezed, and since we decided to sell it, I decided to let the new owner deal with it. The outboard end of the compressor was removed so it wouldn't break the new serpentine belt I had them put in it.

Here is why I am offering the vehicle for sale. My son, who is a C-6 incomplete quadriplegic, is 6' 7" tall. He can enter the van, transfer from his chair to the driver's seat, and drive away. The problem is, he needs help to get from the driver's seat back into his chair. It means he has to depend on someone being wherever he goes to assist him.

So, after much discussion over many months, we looked at cars and he found a Chrysler 300 he can transfer into and back out of fairly easily. He can then collapse his chair and place it in the car. We are having Captain Vantastic install hand controls in that, so that means we no longer will need this van.

The van starts every time (the battery was replaced over the winter), does not burn any oil, and has no leaks of any kind. I had a new driveway put in last year and go nuts if any of my cars leak anything on it. I would not be afraid to jump in it right now and go across the country. It is that dependable. We have mainly used it to transport my son to various doctors near here and in New York City (he also had a heart transplant, and remains an out-patient at Columbia Presbyterian Medical Center in Manhattan).

I have about $20,000 total invested in this van since we bought it in 2006. I have changed the oil every 3000 miles. It was just inspected in April and has a current registration. The title is free and clear. In short -- if anyone is looking for a van which is ideally suited for a handicapped person, or just wants a full size van for pleasure, you cannot go wrong with this one. You will be hard pressed to find one anywhere close to the age of this one, with so few original miles, and is set up for a handicapped person to drive.

I am willing to deliver the van free of charge within 50 miles of where I am located. Otherwise, the van will have to be picked up by the purchaser. I will not ship the van. I am asking for $500 within by Paypal 48 hours of purchase, and the rest paid by cashier's check or cash within 7 days of purchase.

Hot air balloons caught in high winds drag fullsize SUV

Mon, Jul 20 2015

A sudden storm front whipped up enough wind to send some hot air balloons flying into the air in Wisconsin over the weekend. One ballon proved so energetic that it was able to drag a fullsize SUV across a field and into a stand of tents. The freak accident occurred at Balloonfest in Waterford, Wisconsin. Spectators were horrified as balloons dragged handlers to the ground and launched with terrified pilots clinging to their baskets. Organizers had started packing up the colorful balloons due to ominous storm clouds when the wind kicked up. "Happened just like that; it was crazy," Nathan Fricke, crew member, told Fox 6. Winds were clocked at 40 to 50 miles per hour. A balloon caught in the wind dragged a large SUV (we think a Suburban or Yukon XL) hundreds of feet and into a cluster of tents on the edge of the staging area where balloons were on display for festival goers. Considering that the SUV surely weighs well over 5,000 pounds, it's lucky that no one was injured in the incident. News Source: Fox6Now Weird Car News Chevrolet GM GMC SUV

Best 3rd Row SUVs of 2024

Wed, Oct 19 2022

If you plan on using a vehicle's third row a lot, let us at least make the suggestion that a minivan would be a smarter bet than anything you're going to see on this list of best three-row SUVs. Their third rows are bigger, more comfortable and easier to get to. The kids will definitely be happier. Here are our two top choices. OK, now that that's out of the way, we totally get why minivans are totally depressing and that if the kids want to be happier, they can buy their own darn vehicle. You're buying, you're driving, you're being seen in it and you'd rather have a three-row SUV. Fair enough. Luckily, there are more choices than ever and they're really good. The best do a particularly good job of being family friendly without looking like a drab transportation appliance, although really, you can't go wrong with any of the mainstream three-row SUVs. Now, some of the luxury choices are a bit suspect, including those that are otherwise very appealing but have cramped third-row seats (the Genesis GV80 comes to mind). We're focusing on three-row SUVs here, so having a usable third row is a must. In this list, we have broken things down into four sub-categories: Best Three-Row Crossover | Best Full-size Three-Row SUV Best Luxury Three-Row SUV | Best Flagship Luxury Three-Row SUV Note that we define crossovers as SUVs since most buyers use the terms interchangeably, but acknowledge that "crossover" is literally a vehicle with a car-like unibody structure as opposed to the truck-like, body-on-frame construction that traditionally has defined "SUV." In other words, we consider all crossovers SUVs, but not all SUVs are crossovers (specifically those in the full-size segment and some in the flagship luxury segment). Best Three-Row Crossover SUVs of 2024 2024 Honda Pilot Why it stands out: Exceptional storage and cargo space; unique second-row functionality; refined ride; versatile and capable TrailSport; advanced AWDCould be better: Subpar acceleration with lackadaisical transmission and engine response; so-so driver assistance tech Read our full 2024 Honda Pilot Review The Honda Pilot was completely redesigned for 2023. It maintains its predecessor's family friendly packaging and overall focus, but it has injected a welcome sense of style (especially in the TrailSport pictured above) that makes it stand out much better from the big crossover crowd.

2016 Chevy Volt powertrain video teasers

Fri, Oct 31 2014

If there's one thing we've learned about plug-in vehicle fans, you have a thing for seeing your cars get made. The series of videos showing BMW i3 production was strangely popular, as were the shots from inside the VW e-Golf plant. Well, with General Motors pulling the veil off of the 2016 Chevy Volt this week, it's time to take a peek at the production process for that vehicle as well. You're welcome. Up first we've got a clip from CNN Money showing a little bit about how the new Volt's new battery pack and other powertrain components are made. Those of you who are trying to read the lithium tea leaves and see if the new shape reveals that the 2016 Volt will have five seats might want to check it out. Then we've got two clips from GM itself, one showing an animation about the updated Voltec powertrain and another with some B Roll of the old Volt. Since GM doesn't want us to see the new car quite yet, we'll have to enjoy this for now. Watch below. This content is hosted by a third party. To view it, please update your privacy preferences.
