Ron Smith Ron Smith is a life long entrepreneu
r. Mr. Smith is recognized industry wide for his
ingenuity in mobility product design and
implementation. Having developed and patented
two ramp systems which have influenced the
lowered floor mini-van segment of the market.
One being a single in floor ramp system and the
other a two-way ramp system which functions on
the General Motors product which allows the ramp
to deploy from either the passenger or driver
side sliding door. Mr. Smiths contribution to
Wheelers National and International recognition
has been due to his persistence with Wheelers
from the beginning. Mr. Smith owned and operated
Flagstaff EMS from 1977 to 1984 when he sold it
to the Flagstaff Medical Center. While operating
in Flagstaff he also opened Metrocare Ambulance
and Transport Company in Phoenix, AZ which he
sold in 1988 to Rural/Metro Fire Department and
American Ambulance Company. Mr. Smith has great
capabilities to organize and expand operations.
The Smiths ability to organize their rental fl
eet, establish procedures and market their
company while educating the population, as to
why a person using a wheelchair would even want
to rent an accessible vehicle. Obviously, anyone
using a wheelchair knew the reason, but
organizations, businesses and individuals who
had a loved one using a chair or scooter and
other entities didnt realize the magnitude of
which an accessible van rental company could do
to make their lives more independent and their
businesses more adapted to servicing their
clients.

7We Know Your Customers
The rental business has historically been
divided between two complementary but separate
business segments local and travel.
Some local van rentals are under long-term
contracts, e.g. Rentals to hospitals, care
centers or other transport companies which have a
continuing need for wheelchair accessible vans.
We also rent on a short-term basis to local
customers with temporary transportation needs,
and to people who cant afford to buy but who can
afford to periodically rent a wheelchair
accessible van. The travel market tends to be th
e busiest segment of our rental business,
particularly in areas with business, governmental
and medical centers, and in areas with
recreational and tourist attractions, or
concentrated populations of elderly and
disabled. Today, the name WHEELERS is synonymous
with wheelchair accessible van rentals
everywhere. Today, each WHEELERS Dealership
benefits from our world of experience in an
industry we established and from our continued,
nationwide exposure to a targeted market with a
compelling need for our services.
Today, WHEELERS can offer you an opportunity to
join in this attractive, profitable and
worthwhile business. Tomorrow, you can be a part
of the proven WHEELERS program.
