Alternative Transportation
During Your RV Pit Stop
by M.D. Smith |

As
more people spread their wings and
take to the open road. One thing
that is common is that these trips
are much shorter than they used to
be. Gas prices are soaring and that
has put a major crimp in the budgets
of these adventurers. However, there
seems to be a new phenomena taking
place. Gone are the extra vehicles
tagging along behind these RVs. Did
they give up their pit stop
transportation? I don’t think so.
Anyone who has an RV will tell you
about the next wave in alternative
transportation. It’s portable,
convenient and cheap; and it gets
them where they want to go in a
hurry.
What is all of the talk about? Just
two words - Electric Scooters. Over
the past couple of years, electric
scooters have become very popular
with the RV generation. Electric
scooters today are cheaper to
operate, cheaper to purchase, more
compact, a lot faster than its
siblings, and are proving to be
extremely convenient.
If you want to save money, then
getting an electric scooter is the
way to go. Electric scooters are
cheap to operate without the need to
fill up with gas or check the oil
and it only costs a few pennies to
charge. For more bang for your buck,
electric scooters are cheaper to
operate than your monster auto.
If you were to calculate how much it
cost to fill your gas tank up and
how long that will last during your
trip, you would see that after a few
short trips on your scooter, that it
will virtually pay for itself. Check
out how cheap an electric scooter is
and compare how much you will be
spending in gas, service and
maintenance on your tag along
vehicle. Take that money and do
something else with it.
Electric scooters are so compact
that they can fold down and fit in a
closet, under a bed or in that
hideaway cubby on the RV. Most
electric scooters will fold down
from the base of the handlebars
which makes them literally ½ the
size. With this smaller footprint,
you have more options available as
to where you may want to store it
when not in use or traveling.
If speed is a concern, don’t worry.
Manufacturers have heard the cries
and have stepped up to the plate
with some real fast electric
scooters. Some electric scooters
will even outrun some of the gas
scooters. Today’s electric scooters
are capable of hitting twenty to
thirty miles per hour. Speed should
no longer be a concern.
In a world that is centered around
convenience, the electric scooter is
right in the thick of things.
Electric scooters are simple to
unfold, require little to no
maintenance and there is no need to
stop for gas or change the oil.
Electric scooters will get you from
point A. to Point B in no time flat
and can go more places than a
regular automobile can.
So, on your next RV trip, instead of
lugging around an extra vehicle
behind you, toss an electric scooter
inside and save some gas, money and
have some fun while you’re at it.
Knowing that you don’t have that
extra expense for gas will give you
the freedom to add a few extra stops
on your trip as well.
