Great Used Cars

The New York International Auto Show (NYIAS) has already opened its doors and in connection with the opening ceremonies, Toyota showed its concern for the American soldiers who have fought in wars and places of chaos around the world.

At the opening ceremonies of this car show in the Big Apple, two modified Toyota vehicles were presented to two young veterans of the Iraqi war and both of these soldiers have sustained leg injuries. Both soldiers are wounded by IED or improvised explosive devices at some stage in their tour of duty in Iraq. The explosive devices caused leg amputation for the two young soldiers.

U.S. Army veteran Luis Puertas of Long Island City, Queens is one of the two young veterans presented with a modified Toyota vehicle. The 20-year old veteran lost both his legs while on tour of duty in Iraq when an improvised explosive device was detonated under his Humvee while he was stationed in Baghdad. Toyota presented him with a wheelchair-accessible 2007 Toyota Sienna Rampvan. The vehicle is modified to suit Luis’ need for mobility.

First, the vehicle’s floor was lowered by ten inches by the BraunAbility group. The mobility company also integrated a power wheelchair ramp to make the vehicle even more accessible to Luis in his wheelchair. Further, the J. Busani Inc. will also integrate a wheelchair dock to enable Luis to drive the vehicle on his own.

Hand controls will also be installed since the brake and accelerator foot pedals will not be of use to the young veteran. The Toyota Sienna with its modified amenities and stock parts like the Toyota window motors will surely increase Luis’ mobility.

U.S. Marine Ryan Donnelly is the second recipient of a modified Toyota vehicle. The 23 year old veteran from Manhattan received a 2007 Toyota Yaris during the opening ceremonies of the New York Auto Show. Ryan lost his right leg below the knee to an improvised explosive device on his second tour of Iraq. Due to the amputation of his right leg, the J. Busani Inc. modified the Toyota Yaris by transferring its accelerator foot pedals on the left side of the driver.

Ryan, just like Luis, is also fitted with prosthetic legs and with the modified Toyota Yaris, he can also increase his mobility and certainly go places.

The modified Toyota vehicles are part of Toyota’s Mobility Assistance Program. The program, aside from providing modified vehicles, also provides information to their disabled consumers. Their website gives out information where consumers can find rehabilitation specialists, driving instructors for person with disabilities, and other mobility equipment dealers. This program allows disabled motorists to continue driving even after suffering injuries such as that of the two veterans who received the modified Toyota vehicles.

The mobility equipment dealers that Toyota listed on their website not only install specialized equipments but also impart training to consumers on hoe to use the installed equipments.

Rather than deliver more of the same, the Chicks have chosen instead to up the ante in country radio with a follow-up that’s both poppier and twangier than its predecessor, and just plain better too.
