Cleveland, Ohio, United States
2012 Dodge Grand Caravan with Very LOW miles, 2672! This van was converted for my father who was a disabled veteran. It is a Braun Ability Conversion with the floor lowered and a side folding ramp for easy access into the vehicle.
It is modified with an electro mechanical rear kneeling suspension that lowers the van so wheelchair users have an easier time entering. The center seats have been removed to allow room for wheelchairs to move around. The floor is covered with durable, washable flooring and has a rail system with adjustable locking points to secure wheelchairs etc. With the floor being lowered it provides 54 1/4 inches of headroom floor to ceiling at the center of the van. Both side doors and the rear hatch are powered for remote opening and closing The drivers seat is multi position power adjustable and can back up and swing around to allow easier transfer from a wheelchair. Both seats are removable so the driver and passenger can stay in their wheelchairs if needed. This van is equipped with the Mobility Products "Classic 3500 Series" Hand control to accelerate, brake use the horn and dimmer switch. This system can be removed and replaced with one of the AEVIT controls if the driver has less mobility. The most notable feature of this van is the AEVIT 2.0 Advanced Electronic Vehicle Interface Technology or "drive by wire" system. This is a touch screen display that controls: Gas/Brake Steering Aux Battery System Ignition Start/Stop HVAC It is also modular and can be fitted with optional input devices and orthotics that adapt for drivers with limited mobility. If AEVIT is entered on YOUTUBE there are some videos showing people driving with this system. This vehicle has very low miles and is in as new condition. The van was purchased new by my father on 8/29/12. The cost of the van was $31,505. for the chassis. The cost of the conversion and adaptive equipment was $80,437.70 for a total cost of $111,947.70. Unfortunately with his failing health, he was unable to drive it much. |

Leno recalls '90s showdown with Tim Allen and his mullet
Wed, Oct 7 2015Not many of us have buddies with garages full of classic cars, but that isn't the case for Jay Leno and Tim Allen. Of course, one of the advantages for two guys with such vast collections is occasionally getting to pit their cars against each other. The two comedians did just that in the mid-'90s with a burnout battle on The Tonight Show between Allen in a race-prepped Mustang and Leno in a drag racer. After some time away from regular television, Leno is returning to the airwaves with a Jay Leno's Garage series premiering on Oct. 7 (tonight) at 10:00 p.m. ET on CNBC. Let this clip serve as another taste of what to expect for the new TV show's mix of comedy and cars. After reminiscing about the old days in a gorgeous garage, the comedians get into two modern machines to reprise the classic challenge – after a little trash talk anyway. Don't worry because the YouTube series isn't going anywhere, though.
Chrysler patents smarter minivan folding seats
Thu, 02 Jan 2014It's frightening to think of how quickly the mice would have overtaken us if we hadn't stayed one step ahead of them with better mousetraps. We'll never have to worry about that in our relentlessly re-engineered world, though. Case in point: Chrysler has been granted a patent by the US Patent and Trademark Office for an improved design of the already wondrous Stow 'n' Go seating found in the automaker's Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan minivans.
Introduced in 2005, the Stow 'n' Go was improved in 2008, and based on the drawings of this third-generation improvement, the new design appears to allow stowage of the second row of seats without having to move the front-row seats forward as much. It look like it also involves fewer operations and moving parts, with a portion of the seatback being incorporated into the flat floor when the seats are stowed, as opposed to having a completely separate cover.
It's possible that the innovation may appear on the next-generation minivans expected in 2015, but Chrysler isn't commenting on the patent.
