OT – Scooters zipping off lots

[jpinpb]

W/the way people are struggling w/mortgage payments and turning house keys back to bank, I think next is SUVs. Apparently more and more scooters are selling, w/waiting list, which means more to come. More scooters on the road, less SUVs. It will be safer.

All you see in Europe is scooters (of course it’s 8 – 10+ a gallon there) and even in Asian countries. Haven’t heard of extraordinary sales of tombstones there.

Gas prices are only going to keep going up. It’s not like house prices where we knew it made no sense w/subprime, etc. that eventually prices would come down. They have us over a barrel w/gas prices. I don’t see gas prices ever coming down.

scooters are not as dangerous as you might think. they are dangerous if you’re a teen or don’t wear full on motorcycle gear. if you’re an adult with lots of driving experience who is very vigilant and geared up? it’s pretty safe. i rode a scooter for 4 years as an adult over 10,000 miles and never once had anything remotely close to an accident.

[quote=esmith]Maybe I’ll buy a scooter too. They are so economical. My family will be able to take all the money I saved on gasoline and buy me a nice pretty tombstone.[/quote]
I think with less SUV drivers out there, the risk of death to scooter riders is greatly diminished.
