It's official...Nick's 245,000 miles Camry is on it's last leg. Better sell it before it costs us an arm and a leg to fix any problems. So that is the plan. Everyday we have had it posted people call us on it. Tomorrow I am meeting with a lady about it.
SO here's the deal with the Scoot. We thought the following:
1.) $4.10 to fill it up full. No complaints
2.) $55 a year for insurance. No complaints
3.) Free helmet with purchase! No complaints
4.) better parking at BYU. No complaints
5.) Fun, fun, fun. No complaints.
6.) 90 MPG!!!. No complaints.
So we started looking at getting a scooter for Nick (which he will be driving clear into October due to the following story) and while test driving this beauty, Nick wrecked it. Yes, he fell, skidded down state street and cut his toe and road rashed the side of his hip. THANKFULLY he was wearing a helmet! So as the sales man and I watched this happen we started run/walking over to him. Nick pulled the bike to the side of the road and the sales man looked at me (unhappy; probably cause Nick talked him into a test drive on the 'real road') and I said, I know, we will buy it.
Here we are. Scooting around. No problems since and we have had many practice runs in the BYU parking lot before heading to the 'real road' again. No problems since! And we ordered helmets so they will be here soon. Don't worry!

If it makes you feel any better, my brother's roommate brought home a Vespa one day. He had just bought it and was fresh off the lot from the dealership. My brother asked if he could drive it. My bro's roommate, being the nice guy that he is, let him take it for a spin. On the way back, my bro wrecked it and sent it flying down the street. These things just happen, ya know?
