where i live, only 2 groups of people ride mopeds:
- kids <16 years old
- men who got a d.w.i.
in miami, and other warm places, a lot of people ride mopeds. but i don't know why they choose mopeds, instead of motorcycles. motorcycle mpg is >50. maybe moped mpg is even higher.
Moped mpg is insane, if this site (popularmechanics.com) is to be believed. Even on the lower end they get 65-70, and some claim 100+ mpg.
thanks for the info.
if lived in a warm area, i would consider a moped, because of the mpg. but it would be good to have a car for rain, highways, etc.
Yeah, that's one of the biggest downsides for mopeds and motorcycles, along with greatly reduced cargo space.
