Nope, I'm buying you a car.

My kid got a Rukus when he turned 14 (here you can get an under 50cc license at 14), from my perspective it was awesome, he could take him self to the gym, baseball practice, school etc. It's crazy with them here, outside his high school there are 50 plus scooters. Now mind you we are in New Brunswick with not much in the way of people or traffic

It was great I bought him a new one, he put around 4,000km on it over 3 summers and sold it this spring for $400 less than i paid for it. Honestly one of the better $400 i have spent.

I'd take it around the neighborhood or up to the store once in a while was a lot of fun, although a bit slow with my fat ass on it.
