Garage
If you look around you can find used ones cheap. Most people buy a scooter as a fun toy. Then it gets real hot and "to hot to ride", or the chance of rain is above 20% and I don't want o get wet, or the fun is gone after the first SUV scares the crap out of you as they text and drive Then they sit in the garage or the back porch for a couple of years until the gas goes bad and only a full carb rebuild and fresh gas will make it run. Then you can pick them up cheap.

My business partner lives in a gated community with a community pool. He like to ride the scooter to the pool, swim for a while and ride home. No wet seat in the car. He has two scooters in case his daughter comes over, or his girlfriend wants to go to the pool as with him.

I kid him about being a single guy that lives alone and he owns a Miata, and RAV4, a Ford F150, two scooters, a motorcycle, and 1/2 of an Cessna 182. (I own the other 1/2)
