The Versatile Three Wheel Scooter
I can remember when I was a little kid back during the 1950's, and my brother's favorite riding toy was a three-wheeled police cycle. Of course, they weren't motorized back in those days, but he got hours and hours of use out of it, just driving around on our driveway. Many of the modern version of this classic type of scooter do have a motor, and they aren't just for kids any more. Thousands of people use them for traveling around town, because they maneuver easily and use far less gas than any other type of vehicle. Numerous companies have come out with three wheeled scooters just to meet customer demand.
Some three wheeled vehicles tend to be unstable and tip over easily. The modern scooters are designed with stability in mind. They have been tested on all kinds of wet and dry roads, and their performance has been determined to be far superior to an ordinary two wheeled bicycle. They offer a lot more road grip and safety, especially while driving in traffic. Not only do they give you high gas mileages of around 90 mpg, but insurance for them is also considerably less than for a car or truck. These scooters are much more economical to purchase and maintain than most other types of transportation.
Maybe you live in a big city where most people don't have cars and rely on mass transit. That's all right, as far as it goes, but doing errands in your own neighborhood can mean a lot of walking. These small scooters will give you the freedom to travel where you like, and since you can park them in smaller spaces, you won't have parking problems like you would with a car. You will even find models available that will seat two passengers and which have a roof so that you can drive them comfortably no matter if the weather is rainy or sunny.
There are dozens of different styles of three wheel scooters available. The one you choose will depend on what you want. If you're looking for a mobility scooter, the ones with three wheels are a less expensive option. These small units maneuver well both inside and out, and they only travel at maximum speeds of around 5-8 mph, so you'll always feel safe. These little scooters allow you to sit down and ride which is good for people with mobility issues.
Teens, however, are sure to prefer something faster and with a cooler look. For example, they might like the Trikke tribreds which have one motorized front wheel and two back wheels with dual brakes. Models such as these reach speeds of 18 mph and will travel as much as 22 miles on a battery charge. Vespa's electric three-wheeler is also a favorite choice of young people. This model is advertised as being exceptionally-stable and has two front wheels that tilt and one wheel on the back. The Vespa will travel at up to 62 mph, and it goes 68 miles on a charge.
You can also still find three-wheeled scooters for children, too. These models may be rider controlled or have electric or gas motors. Go-Ped produces a wide variety of scooters for children such as the Know-Ped push model, the GSR Sport Gas-Powered City Scooter, or the Go-Ped ESR750H Hoverboard Electric Powered City Scooter. The choice will depend on the age of the child and the type of terrain he or she will be riding on.
