Now here’s a story for MajorGeeks. It involves a combat veteran, Brad Soden and a wheelchair tank. Yeah.
The Tankchair, customized for any weather Mother Nature has in store, is built off of a steel or aluminum frame and provides users -- predominantly people with limited mobility due to physical disabilities -- with confidence when exploring uneven terrain, according to the product's website.
The battery-powered Tankchair, which starts at $19,500 and is built to last 15-20 years, has come a long way since Soden's earliest creations. To the combat veteran, it took a tiring cycle of trial and error to get Tankchairs to where the model is today.
