I was so happy when I finally got my mobility scooter until I got my electric bill. Not so happy now, my electric went up higher than when I used to have a freezer,which I got rid of years ago because of the electric cost.I decided to go back to using my walker instead and get my steps in. I realized that the muscles in my legs got weaker from using my mobility scooter too.I realize their are people that really need one that lost the ability to walk at all due to birth or being paralyzed etc. but that wasn't me.I just was getting tired of walking to the store and started using it too much.
