recommend me a Moped/Scooter!

well, since I really travel mostly within 5 miles of my house, and my car is a gas-guzzlin', 8-cylinder 1998 Lincoln TownCar that gets less than 17mpg, and i only weigh 130lbs, I think a nice scooter would be a wise choice for the summer of the $4 gallon.

I'm looking in the price range of $400-$600, something that can get up to 35-40mph, and gets excellent gas mileage (or perhaps even an electric motor).

I drive a yellow one of these.

It's pretty neat. It had a restricter on it that kept it at 30 mph, but I took it off and it goes about 47 now. I go about 35 miles a day on it and only spend about $1.50 a day on gas. I don't feel like doing the math to figure out the miles per gallon, but it's evidently pretty good.

hmm, I was just looking around and electric bicycles sound like a slightly better option for me, since i already ride my bike a lot of places, I wouldn't have to find parking for it (I could haul it up the stairs into my apt, unlike a big ol' moped), they are emission-free, and I could just get a kit and upgrade my current ride, or just buy a cheap junker bike to upgrade, while keeping my current bike as a mountain/trail bike...

decisions decisions. I've got a b-day comming soon too...

I had a Honda Spree when I was 14. If you drill holes in the muffler you can add about 10mph to the top speed. If you get anything over 50cc(maybe 25cc, I forget what mopeds are) you have to have a motorcycle liscence. Atleast thats the law where I live.
