Scooter-Rama: Opinion Poll
This could be the most important question of our lifetimes:
Should I go with lime-green, which is bright and fresh and just a bit unusual?
Or classic red, for a more sporty look?
Or maybe that sexy black number?
Or is sunny yellow the right color for me?
Some people (okay, most people) say that I'm crazy to think a scooter is a replacement for a car. I look at it this way; I could spend a lot more money on a car I really can't afford, or buy a cheap hunk of junk that will be unreliable and inefficient, or I could get a brand-spankin'-new scooter with 80 miles to the gallon and a limited warantee for $899. Yes, there are safety issues, even my motorcycle-riding, whisky-drinking father has lectured me on those. However, I think that they are neglecting to factor in the fact that I have absolutely no wish to die anytime soon. I'm an excellent driver, excellent.
So please, refrain from the chiding, and just tell me which color would look best on me.
