Electric Scooter for christmas/campground use: any suggestions?

I am thinkkng of picking up an electric scooter for a family christmas gift. Does anybody have one they can reccomend for adult/kid use? I was looing for one that we can use around the campgrounds and I do not want a gas one since it will certainly make to much noise for the other campers.
I do not like noisy campground neighbors so we do our best not to irritate other campers also.

This would be priamarly for the daughter to ride and for family use.

I am 6'6" and close to 250lbs so it should be able to "pull a load" up an incline with ease.

looking at the stand up/seat option type that folds down for storage.



any suggestions from anyone who owns this type of scooter would be apprecciated.

Thank you for all responses.

that is actually the exact one one I am looking at, i copied the picture from amazon. I also read all of the reviews with 99% of them being 5 stars.

I agree this is probably the one to get based on the feedback.

thank you realebill

My husband and I each have a Zappy 3 wheeler. Very stable. Comfortable seat, headlight, basket. And a horn. We use at several campgrounds...battery powered. Some parks don't allow gas engines...

I have these: Clicky and love them. They also make a 1000 watt that has disk brakes and full suspension. Some of the folks we camp with have them and they are really comfy.

Edit: some of the local outdoor stores around here carry them so you don't have to pay the shipping from amazon.
