<human>: I'm a pizza delivery driver and I love doing it but with an older car like mine(2001 spyder eclipse if it matters) A lot of that extra tip money finds it's way going back towards my car. So I'm looking to make the switch ASAP to a scooter because I rarely have other people in my car, if I need to there's other cars here. And obviously the insurance/gas is little to none even compared to my 4 cylinder car.
So my idea is selling my car for roughly $2500 (I paid $3000 for it just a few months ago but the A/C has since went out and it's a $300 fix) to buy a scooter and have some extra cash to get me back on my feet.

Now I'm willing to spend $500 to $1000 on a scooter, I don't want something that goes 35 mph(I DO NOT want to be that guy!). Most streets are 45 mph around here, So something with a top speed of 50 mph would be ideal. Considering even upwards of $1500 if I could sell my car, get a scooter, find a new job all without running out of money because these things take time.

Why I come to reddit for something simple like buying a scooter; I know nothing about them! Hoping someone who knows their scooters can set me in the right track(maybe even someone in vegas who can recommend a shop) But any general information about scooters/purchasing a scooter would be awesome! I will be fine riding because I used to ride dirt bikes a lot and the ultimate goal is to upgrade to a street legal dirtbike or motorcycle in the future. Tips on riding a scooter on the streets would be awesome though!
One last thing Since this 'switch' involves me finding a new job, if anyone who has used monster or similar websites to find jobs faster than hunting on your own, are they worth using?
Thanks reddit!
