By getting over 80 miles to the gallon, your savings account will grow with each mile you put on your scooter. A simple comparison tells you how much you can save by using a scooter:

	Miles/Gallon			Cost ($4/gallon)	Cost to Drive 5000 miles
SUV	12			0.33 per mile	$1667
Scooter	90			0.04 per mile	$200

SAVINGS OF OVER $1600 in gas money for only 5000 miles

Most people drive for about 18,000 miles per year, if you use your scooter for only 5000 of those miles it will have already paid for itself and you will begin to realize significant savings direct to your pocket.

A MSNBC article by Denise Ono did the same analysis similar to this one, using different assumptions can came to the same conclusion. Did you also know that Insurance for scooters is also much less than compared to other vehicles.
