Default Mel, Kitt, that demo almost does it justice...

I started to get in my car and look at the car parked in front of me and well, my eyes kind of popped. The wheelchair was in some kind of harness/hydraulic lift RISING up and then just gently folding over sideways into this turtle top. No clang, bang, jingle...just a hum and whirr. I just HAD TO GO and ask, and the lady was pleased to tell me it's virtues, only drawback was the cost, apparently. Now, that problem's solved...sort of.

Tho not [if I can help it] expecting to need such a thing soon, I've kind of been 'searching' out what's there. A prep for the overall sticker shock should the time come.. This was kind of sensible, and you don't need to shop for a van, either. Well, you get the drift.

Now, if you folks can find me a sort-of 'foot-sensor' pad...something that tells me my foot is square on the accelerator or brake...that'll do me for now.

Good thoughts and things to you all! - j
