Jason LefkowitzIf you have someone in your life with mobility limitations, this company in Utah makes great products to help them out.

Would you happen to know of a source for "wheelchair lifts"?
@alienghic For a while we had a van with a wheelchair lift. The installation was done by a company in Georgia called Adaptive Mobility Systems, and the package was sold to us by a company called MobilityWorks. It all worked as you'd expect.
AMS sells adapted vans directly, and we took an absolute bath on the resale value of ours when we didn't need it anymore, so you might want to cut MobilityWorks out of the middle of the transaction if you can.
@alienghic A couple other companies whose name frequently popped up when I was looking around in that space, though I have less direct experience with them...
Braun: https://www.braunability.com
Driverge: https://www.driverge.com/consumers/
Some cranky old people had previously told me "we don't want a minivan"
And I tried arguing minivans look to have the lowest and widest entry options for a wheel chair.
@alienghic There are companies that will put a lift in an SUV (see for instance https://www.braunability.com/us/en/mobility-products/wheelchair-accessible-vehicles/chevy-traverse-suv-side-entry-power-infloor-ramp.html). But you’re right, vans and minivans are much better suited.
