Light Mobility Scooter

I need a mobility scooter which I, as a disabled person, can fold or disassemble, and put in the boot of a car. So I need to find the scooter with the lightest "heaviest piece", if you see what I mean. Any ideas?

1. For senior citizens that meet the requirements, Medicare will pay up to 80% of the cost of a scooter and many companies file the paperwork for you.


2. Try this site, they seen to have many types and styles......

She'll be ok on the ferry, the bars open late :)

The lighting won't be a problem, but I need to pull 70 or 80 more horse power out of it.
Got any suggestions?

Bigger batteries.

I am currently using a Legend by Pride. It is ok. I weigh 320, my dog 7 and i carry groceries so I need one that allows 350 lb. I need one 46 inches or less long so I can get on the local bus. I need the captains chair. I want a front and rear basket, full lights, rear view mirror, hand brake, and cane holder if it will fit next to rear basket.

The Wheelchair place, Owens Medical Equiptment, and Northern Rehab and Respiratory are just a few places that will come to your home and measure you for the proper size wheelchair. Just call around where ever it is that you live and medical supply or equipment places and ask for a home evaluation. Also if you have medical or medicare and a real disabilitie they will bill them for the service and at the same time they will check your home for any other medical equiptment you may need such as grab bars, eating equiptment, shower chairs, etc. druski0918
