Default 4 Wheeler for disabled

I'm starting to shop for a 4x4 4 wheeler for my disabled father. I haven't shopped for one at all. He has use of his hands, not his legs. Are any 4 wheelers already set up for hand controls?

You may want to look for a used, bombardier traxter, they have the "step through design" where its easy to get on and off, so your father wouldn't have to get a leg over one side to mount the four wheeler. If you find a manual shift that you like, you can always get a hand shifter for it. Moose makes one for 20-30$ and just attaches to the foot shift. Also there are quite a few companies making four wheelers already with electric push button shifts, and automatics.
