"If I want to go, I go."

Five years ago, a drunk driver left Marc paralyzed from the chest down. Five months ago, he got his license back β€” and the keys to a van fitted with hand controls and a ramp built for how he moves through the world now.

For Marc, this isn't just a vehicle. It's the difference between waiting and going.

Part 1 of Marc's story. Stay tuned for Part 2.

Spring check-in time 🌱

Winter is hard on a vehicle - and even harder on the equipment that gets you in and out of it. Now's a good time to bring your van in for a seasonal once-over.

Our techs will walk through the spots that take the biggest hit over the winter months:

πŸ”§ Ramp operation and wear points
πŸ”§ Undercarriage (salt, sand, the usual New England culprits)
πŸ”§ Hand controls and adaptive driving equipment

A quick service appointment now means fewer surprises down the road. Give us a call to get on the schedule: 860-653-8064

Another Pacifica XT out the door. This one's loaded - driver assistance tech, theater group, panoramic sunroof - and built on an extra-tall BraunAbility side-entry conversion. Our customer was ready to get behind the wheel and put it to work.

Christian and Sam headed to the State Capitol in Hartford on Wednesday for the 3rd Annual Bradley Development League Day - an event spotlighting businesses, nonprofits, and attractions from East Granby, Suffield, Windsor, and Windsor Locks.

Hosted by State Representative Tami Zawistowski, the day brought local organizations together with state lawmakers to talk about what's happening around Bradley International Airport and across our four towns. For us, that meant sharing the work Advanced Wheels does every day to keep adaptive mobility accessible for our neighbors here in Connecticut.

Thank you to Rep. Zawistowski and everyone at the Bradley Development League for the invitation.

Every accessible vehicle build comes down to the details β€” and Sam's 2025 Chrysler Pacifica is a great example of why those details matter.

In this walkthrough, Sam explains why he chose the E2 conversion over the XT: interior height. The E2 positions him correctly for both line of sight, transfer height, and seatbelt fit. The XT would have placed him too low. It's the kind of choice that doesn't come up in a brochure but makes all the difference once you're driving every day.

A few other elements of his setup:

➑️ Teaming the Braun 6-way transfer seat with the Chrysler memory seat features to smoothly transfer in and out
➑️ Rear unoccupied wheelchair restraint system to keep his chair secure and passengers safe
➑️ Push-rock hand control, allowing simultaneous steering wheel and control operation
➑️ Owner-controlled hand-control activation as a safeguard for service or valet situations
➑️ Surround-view camera, adaptive cruise, voice recognition, and heated comfort features

This is the kind of consultation our team has with every client: understanding our customer, their lives, and which of our vehicles truly meets their needs the best. The technology is impressive, but the fit is what matters.
