scooter

The guy who comes in work at night to clean up owns a scooter. He says they're great fun and he and his family ride theirs every Saturday. I asked him "why not a motorcycle?" and he told me because his scooter is almost nothing to maintain, it cost only $1500 brand new (he's had his since 2002), its automatic, and insurance is $80 per year! He rides it all day on Saturday for about 9 months of the year. He says it costs him $2-3 per week in gas!
