    Good News!

    I got a new motorized 4 wheel scooter yesterday!! I did a test run today up our gravel driveway and all around our property and I'm so elated No more struggling to get out to my gardens over uneven grass. I can now get out to the fruit trees and blueberry bushes. I can take walks with my husband or friends.

    Some of you may remember the other one I had (it was my avatar)- but it turned out to be a very expensive "lemon" and the company I brought it from was a running a bad practice. I was without a scooter for 10 months or so.

    My life is going to be so much better!

          Congratulations. It will make everything more enjoyable. I know 50 yards can be so far away some days. I hope you have great luck with it. Now you can spend your energy in your gardens instead of using it up just getting there. I’m very happy for you.

                    I have a farm and need a new scooter with bigger wheels that can clear 8” at least

                    Is there some reason you did not identify the scooter you got? I would like to know its name. Hope you see this!

                      It's a BUZZ Around EX by Golden. 4 wheeler. I'm still loving it , but I wish the shocks were a tad bit better. I travel mostly on uneven ground and hard packed gravel.

                          MSLazarus - I just reread your post and can tell you the BuzzAround model I have has only a 4" clearance. It wouldn't work for your situation.

                          However, this might work for you https://www.accessiblemadrid.com/en/...bility-scooter
