The answers we give on the phone, written down.
Nobody buys one of these twice. We'd rather you arrived knowing what you're looking at — even if you end up buying it somewhere else.
Funding your mobility vehicle
VA benefits, vocational rehabilitation in Utah, Nevada and Arizona, manufacturer rebates, financing and grants — and the order to do them in, which matters more than the list.
Vehicle Finder
Four questions and a straight answer about which shape of vehicle fits. No email, nothing saved. Three of its answers don't end in buying anything from us.
Nine measurements to take first
Ten minutes with a tape measure rules out whole categories of vehicle before you fall for one. Bring these numbers to any dealer and the conversation gets twice as useful.
Ramp or lift?
The first real fork in the road, and the one most people get steered on rather than reasoning through. Four factors decide it, and they usually agree.
Side entry or rear entry
A side ramp needs about eight feet of clear space to deploy. Whether you have that — at home, at work, at the grocery store — settles it more often than any feature list.
The journal
Everything above, plus accessible camping and the rest. Written the way we'd answer standing next to the van.
Why this exists
A guide, not a dealer.
An accessible vehicle is one of the largest and least transparent purchases a family ever makes, and most of the information out there is written by someone trying to close it.
We'd rather be the people who explain it. That has a cost — some of what's on these pages will talk you out of a vehicle, or into a cheaper one, or send you to a state agency instead of to us. We think that's the right trade, and it's the reason the company is called Guide.
Still stuck?
Send us the question.
If it isn't answered here it probably should be — and it may well turn into the next piece.
