Hi Warren, you can get the specs and the name of a dealer in your area by 
contacting Permobil of America
                   30 Ray Ave.
                   Burlington, Mass. 01803
                   (800) 736-0925

As to the cost I have found out that it varies from area to area.
When I was in St. Louis for the Abilities expo they had a local
dealer with a booth there and he wanted over $2000 for the chair
model super 90 not stacked as much as the one I have talked with my
dealer about. The price that I'm looking at for the super 90 with
corpus seat electronically operated is $14,000.  It is expensive
and you have to really have a well writen justification from your
doctor to pull it off.
