Sorry if this a rehashed question. I applied for Automobile Grant (21-4502) October 11th. Ebenefits shows on benefits under Supplementary Benefits, "Entitled to Automobile Grant of up to $20,114.34 and Adaptive Equipment for your Automobile."
Obviously I need to wait for the form/certificate to be sent back to proceed.
My VA Driver Rehab/KT recommended Hitch lift, wheel knob, and hand controls. Plus I have 4 kids, so a minivan wouldn't really fit the bill.
My question is what then? Most mobility dealers in my area sell the roll-on minivans. So can I just go to any regular dealer, pick out a vehicle, then take it to the local VA Approved conversion shop / mobility dealer? I just don't want to run in circles. Also if any fellow chair users have advice on type of vehicle, I'm open to recommendations.
