Cushman scooters are among the most revered brand
names in the industry. These scooters, among the
first power scooters produced, were constructed in
Lincoln, Nebraska, from the 1930s through the
1960s. Some of these scooters were even
commissioned by the military for use in World War
II.
Having last been made in 1965, these scooters are
not widely available nearly forty years later.
Their following is so devoted that there are still
a number of organizations devoted to the history
of these scooters. A few lucky collectors also
have some original models on display.
Though you can't buy a new Cushman scooter any
more, there are still numerous options for your
scooting life. Cushmans ran on gas, and
manufacturers still make a number of gasoline
powered models for you to use. For the daring,
there are also more technologically advanced
models.
Electric scooters, a relatively recent innovation,
are steadily growing in popularity and usage.
These clean machines zip around without causing
unnecessary pollution on easily rechargeable
batteries. They may not have the Cushman logo on
them, but they might just be the next best thing!
