Greetings from VA
Hi all: Just joined. Looking for suggestions on what to buy. Just retired and looking for small scooter to attach to hitch on my RV. Should be no more than 250-300 lbs so I can wheel it onto hitch. Prefer larger tires (14"). Would like to try before I buy but not many scooter dealers on east coast so I'm hoping for good feedback. Any ideas?

Welcome!
I don't know a lot about the various Chinese scooters out there, except to say that most of them are powered by a GY6 engine, which is a really close copy of a Honda. I have some experience with Saga scooters, which are imported into Canada, and they are decent quality. Are you looking for a 50, 150 or 250?

Welcome; we are glad you joined us!
 I don't know much about scooters, so I will defer comment to others.  Spud
