After seeing all of the good reviews on here for the Go Go Elite Traveler Plus I've decided to purchase one. I'm hoping I'll be able to use it in the parks on one battery charge per night. I rented the Revo last month from Buena Vista scooters and really liked it but decided to go with the Go Go because it is smaller and lighter weight. I know Cheshire said that his Go Go only went 6 hours in the park but I'm hoping that is because his battery was getting old. I really need reassurance that others have gone all day on one battery charge.
I went to a few medical supply places this weekend and 2 of the places only had the Go Go Elite Traveler and I found that to be too uncomfortable with my long legs. Only one place had the Plus model and even though it is only a few inches longer the rim at the front of the base doesn't go completely all the way across on the Plus model which allows you to rest your feet with the toes sticking slightly off of the end. The regular one the rim goes all the way across and my legs ended up at an angle that put a lot of pressure on my knees.
I can purchase the Plus model online for $1099 or I can purchase it from The Scooter Store for $1199 or I can purchase it from a local medical supply store for $1275. The Scooter Store does have a local store but it doesn't have scooters inside and you have to order either online or on the phone but the local Scooter Store would do all repairs. My local medical supply store had a price of $1450 on theirs but came down to $1275 for me.
Where did most of you purchase yours from? Did you buy locally or did you purchase online? Does anyone have any experience with purchasing from The Scooter Store? I spend about $400 a year renting scooters for our trips to Disney World. Owning my own will allow me to go other places and do other things I've not been able to do in a very long time.
