No you draw a conclusion based on absolutely nothing. Are you voting for Hilarity or possibly Burnout Bernie the porn writing king?

I want to understand the post of fred53.
First, the context of jnieman refers to a hoveround, which he calls a mobility scooter in parenthesis. I don't understand how you interpret that to make reference to "an electric two wheeled vehicle." Hoveround is the brand name of an electrically powered
wheel chair which has
four wheels. The generic term "mobility scooter" refers to electrically powered scooters, some of which have three wheels and others have four wheels which are designed and used by the handicapped. Please explain your "two wheeled" assumption.
Second, I'm curious to know what you are talking about when you say the rider "has to carry
the 20 pound device into the store." What device? And what do you mean "they have to walk around with it?" I ride my mobility scooter everywhere, including into businesses, as do many similarly situated people.
And finally, what do you mean "how do they afford to live here?" Do you possibly believe that handicapped individuals cannot live in The Villages?
I'd appreciate some clarification in these three areas.
Perhaps you have confused the "Mobility Scooter" which is for handicapped individuals and "Electric Scooter" which is basically a toy for adults. If you will do a browser search of these two terms you will see photos that show the difference.
After which you might want to apologize to jnieman for your gratuitous insult of his intelligence, when you are the one who made a false assumption.
