Disabled Veteran Looking For Handicap Class A Motorhome

Recommended Posts

Hello, my name is Stephen Scott Gatlin, I am a "Disabled Veteran", paralyzed from the chest down, complete. I am an evangelist looking to tour to speaking at churches and other venues. I am also a humorist, musician, and motivational speaker. I'm looking for my first handicap motorhome with the essential options such as, wheelchair lift, roll in shower, hospital bed, hand controls. I have not had any positive results from searching. I live in Louisiana and the few I've located are too far away or way out of my price range. I've done most every combination known to man in choosing the words to Google on my pc. I'm beginning to think it's not meant for me to have one. I was praying to find a one owner that's not being used anymore, say for whatever reason, death, health, or some other reason. So, if you folks out there happen to know of such an RV, please send me a reply. I do not have deep pockets, so luxury coaches, or high end motorhomes are completely out of the question, unless the Lord chooses to really bless me and have someone donate the ministry one. You can also call or text my cell phone anytime here at three one eight, five four eight, one one seven four. I am also available for revivals, where my focus is, "How To Remain In Your Faith, When Your Life Is Chaotic." My name is Stephen and my ministry name is "Wings As Eagles Ministries", taken from Isaiah 40:31. I pray to hear from you. God Bless!

Hi, Stephen. Thank you for posting on the FMCA Forums. I'll throw out a few bits of information that might help.

Several motorhome manufacturers specially outfit motorhomes for RVers with physical challenges. Among them are Winnebago Industries and Newmar.

Several companies outfit motorhomes with wheelchair lifts, among them Star Tracks (http://www.startrackslifts.com/) and Coach Lift (http://www.coachlift.com/rv-lift/).

A Google search located a dealership that has a rental motorhome that is wheelchair accessible. Searching may turn up others. Here is a link to the one I found:

http://www.fraserway.com/rentals/vehicles/wheelchair-accessible-motorhome.

And, as it turns out, there is a handicap-equipped motorhome for sale by a private owner in Family Motor Coaching magazine’s Classifieds section. I can share more information with you if that’s of interest.

The Handicapped Travel Club, which is not affiliated with FMCA, might be a good resource for you. Their website is www.handicappedtravelclub.com.

FMCA has a chapter called Achievers International, whose members may have more direct experience with motorhoming with physical challenges. I can provide the contact info for the chapter, if you like.

And I would be remiss if I did not suggest that you join FMCA once you do purchase a motorhome. The associated benefits can help you to travel with more peace of mind. Plus, the monthly magazine contains valuable information that many say makes the membership worthwhile.

I hope this information helps. Please let me know if FMCA can assist otherwise.
