Thanks for all the info. I don't really need a scooter right now so I know my doc wouldn't right a script ofr it. I rent one for vacations, city zoo, etc. If it's a one day thing it's $50, over 3 days I think it's $100. We always rent form Freedom Medical. So that's part of the problem for me right nwo. I don't really need it except for vacations, etc. But if it's a good scooter ofr $300 plus the cost of a battery, I'm not sure if I could turn it down. Plus if it's fairly portable I know my Mom could go to the mall. She absolutley refuses to let anyone take her scooter and put it in the back of their truck and being held with bungee cords or whatever. So she hasn't been to the mall in ages.
