See the MachineYou served. Get the outdoors back.
Amputations, spinal injuries, neurological injuries, chronic pain — the things service leaves behind don't have to mean the outdoor part of your life is over. TerrainHopper is moving through formal channels with the VA, and we'll help you start the conversation.
Service-connected. Outdoor-built.
Engineered for soft ground, hills, water — the country veterans tend to want back the most. Designed around the bodies service leaves behind.
Built for service-connected mobility
Amputation, spinal injury, neurological injury, chronic pain — the machine doesn't ask which one. It just gets you back on the ground.
VA pathway in motion
TerrainHopper is moving through formal channels with the Department of Veterans Affairs. We help you start the Automobile Adaptive Equipment conversation today.
Brothers and sisters in the program
A meaningful share of our waiting list and our Recipient Sponsorships are veterans. You're not the only one in the truck.
A 10-second self-check.
You're a veteran or active-duty service member with a mobility challenge — amputation, SCI, TBI, chronic pain, or service-connected disease.
Outdoor time — the hunt, the lake, the lease, the back acres — has gotten harder or stopped.
You can transfer to a seat with or without help and operate a handlebar throttle or a joystick.
You want a real outdoor machine, not the indoor power chair the catalog keeps offering.

When you're ready, explore every funding path
Cobble it together.
There's no single program that hands a TerrainHopper to a rider. The families that get one build a personal funding campaign — a grant here, a state loan there, a fundraiser, a sponsor, a chunk of savings. It works. It just takes a plan.
Talk Through Your Plan- 01
Stack the sources
Almost nobody pays for a TerrainHopper with a single check. The riders who get one usually combine a grant, a state loan, a fundraiser, and a family contribution. Plan for three to five sources, not one.
- 02
Start with what's closest
Apply to a state assistive-tech loan and one or two grants first — those have the longest timelines. Then open a fundraiser to close the gap once you know the number.
- 03
Tell one honest story
A short video, a few photos, and the specific outdoor thing you want back. People don't fund a wheelchair — they fund a grandfather back in the deer woods, a mom back at the lake, a kid back on the trail.
- 04
Ask the rooms you're already in
Church, hunting club, VFW, neighborhood, employer, Ducks Unlimited or NWTF chapter, your kids' school. Local money moves faster than national grants.
What worked for you?
We sell machines. You and your family have actually lived Veterans — the appointments, the denials, the grant forms, the fundraiser that finally broke open, the local club that wrote the check nobody saw coming. That's knowledge we don't have and can't fake.
If you've put together funding for adaptive equipment — yours, a loved one's, anybody's — tell us how. We'll fold what you share into the advice we give the next Veterans family that lands on this page.
Share What Worked- · Which grant, loan, or program actually came through for you?
- · Which ones were a dead end — so we can stop sending people there?
- · What did your fundraiser look like? What made it work?
- · Any local source — church, club, employer, foundation — most families miss?
- · What do you wish someone had told you on day one?
We'll listen more than we talk.
