Fox Business Says Keep Your Truck, But Consider a Scooter

Editor-in-Chief

Actually, their argument is similar to the one I made last month. If you have a gas guzzling truck or SUV and are freaking out, be sure to do the math before making any rash decisions. And if you need a cheap way to get around for short trips and errands, scooters are cool. Fox Business.

Yep. And if you want one that really is cool and goes fast, check out ronpatrickstuff.com.

I have a Toyota Yaris and I still got a scooter. Went with 250cc, does 90mph, gets almost triple the mileage of the Yaris, and costs $10 to fill up with 92 octane.

I’m glad there’s at least one other Quadrophenia fan here.

My wife and I have talked about getting one of the larger scooters, or perhaps one of the smaller trikes.

Screw you, Jordan. Scooters are the epitome of cool, but maybe not in your backwater town.

Nice Quadrophenia shot! The Who=cool.

I’d get a scooter, but it would have to be one of the largest type, 250cc. Unfortunately, my Wife has been giving me mucho resistance on the idea of getting a motorized 2-wheeler of any kind. Dosen’t mean I won’t buy one or a motorcycle eventually, just means I have some work to do to get her onboard.

I want a scooter. The first “motorcycle” I ever drove was a moped with pedals when I was a young kid. didn’t have enough to climb a steep hill or make my paper route easier, stuck with bicycles. Today however… I am city enough to buzz around on one..if I could pick it up and put it on the porch.Even 40mpg is what a v8 used 10 years ago for the same trip. So oppressive…
