I bought a scooter last year. Gets 75 - 80 mpg and goes 55 - 60 mph. Best investment I ever bought. I Drive 15 miles one way to work. Great for short trips like the bank and local stores too. Only problem was it was made in china. America needs to get on the ball. I know of 4 local scooter shops that opened in my area in the past 2 years but they all sell scooters made in china...
