Vehicle Selection 101
The main purpose of the Vehicle Selection 101 guide is to educate. If you are not part of a system that regularly deals with disabilities (like the Veterans' Administration, Vocational Rehabilitation or Worker's Compensation), the potential for wasting time and money is enormous. This guide will give you all of the information you need (and then some) to become an informed consumer.

 Height measurements are variables of suspension condition, gas levels & cargo loads. 
*Because there are so many raised roof manufacturers with a variety of models, this is the roughest of estimates.
**On Ford Club Wagons, the interior height in the mid-section only is reduced 2" by the OEM headliner.
Estimated Miles per Gallon are provided by fueleconomy.gov and are all based on 5.4L gas engines.
All estimated specifications are subject ot change without notice.
