Permobil F5 at Disney

[MBNYC]

Hello! I am about to get a Permobil F5 and wanted to see if others have had experiences using it in Disney World. It's a little bigger than my current chair (Permobil C300), so I want to make sure it will fit on rides that allow power wheelchairs. In the past, I remember Buzz Lightyear and Pooh being a tight squeeze, but doable. Thanks!

The new chair will be about 4 inches wider and 5 inches longer than your old C300. I still don't imagine it will give you much trouble but ... perhaps. This is still one of the finest powerchairs I have ever worked on. I shortened the wheelbase on two F5's and an F5 VS and still could not get them to tip. Was also able to install mecanum drive wheels that let it travel sideways. Just a wonderful platform overall.
