I have a Chevy Uplander that is fully converted with ramp and ability to kneel when the ramp is deployed and more. I can’t answer most of your questions, but will comment and give what information I can.

A new vehicle would probably be in the area of $60,000 and most decent used vehicles I’ve seen have been around $30,000 at dealerships. You didn’t mention where in NY your referring to, but we did buy our vehicle new in Albany NY from Mobility Works 1-800-841-3150. The closest facility they have to here in TV is in Jacksonville. There are a few other dealers that are fairly close to us in Clairmont and Ocala. Here’s the links to their websites where you can access further information:

Mobility Works

Mobility Freedom

AVM Mobility

Here is a place in Sommerville (not a vehicle dealer) where I got my mobility scooter. It may not have anything you're interested in, but thought I'd provide the link so you can take a look anyway:

Ritter Medical Inc.
