I'm planning a trip with my mother and she will be using an ECV. This will be our first trip to the world with an ECV. She went with us 2 years ago and rented a wheelchair. That worked well because she didn't need it all the time, but her disability has progressed and an ECV is really the only option at this point. She has rented an ECV a few times before (not at Disney) and really enjoyed the freedom. My parents are thinking they will just buy an ECV and bring her own rather than rent. I think as time progresses she will need the ECV more and more so it just makes sense to buy one instead of wasting the money to rent over and over. Plus, she will need it at the airport too. I really want everything to go smoothly for her so for those of you who have gone with an ECV do you have any tips? I think my biggest fear is the bus system. We always use the buses, but I have seen and read about how ECV users can be treated by other guests in line. My mom doesn't have very thick skin so I'm thinking about discreetly suggesting to my dad that we rent a car this time. Aside form the bus situation is there anything else I should be aware of? Thanks!!
