I got my Taotao Thunder thru Amazon & Smart Deals Now. It worked out quite well. Scooter was delivered intact and all extra parts arrived safely. The manufacturers statement of origin arrived promptly too. I’m happy with everything altho UPS sat on it for a few extra days it all worked out OK.

When I decided what I wanted I went price shopping. I bought a TaoTao Zummer on line from Upzy.com. They had the best price. It was $879 but they also had a $50 online coupon making $829. A couple of hours after placing the order they e-mailed and said they had black or white ones in their local warehouse and would give me an additional $30 off if I would accept either of those colors (I had originally ordered a red one) and they would deliver it that same day. I changed my color choice to black and they delivered it 3 hours later in an undamaged box with the certificate of origin in hand. Upzy.com communicated well and delivered as promised.  |

I am 5’10” myself. The Zummer is plenty roomy for me but I sit back a bit and I might be scrunched if I had a passenger. I wanted 12” wheels. I also considered the Evo but I liked the simple style of the Zummer. It does not look like a “traditional scooter”. I cannot compare it to other scooters you mentioned. I have no experience with them.

Congratulations. I hope you have a buying experience as good as mine….. What color did you get? I don’t want it to get mixed up with mine, “Little Blackie” ….. Also note: I did not see it in Brent’s very detailed and thorough post-delivery inspection but be sure to check the carburetor drain screw at the bottom of the drain tube. Mine came lose on the 3rd ride and started to dump fuel when ridding.

Update somehow my order confirmation was sent to a email address that i didnt have for years? (Pay pal goofup i guess) sent proper email to upzy.to resend to proper email. Ill keep updating as the saga continues....update recieved tracking info , just waiting for tracking #'s to work update 12/27 6:30 shows my scoot @ pitt ohio terminal in Baltimore , Md. Hopefully it will make it to Delaware by tomorrow or friday. The crate can squish into my cluttered garage & wait untill i turn the garage heat on before uncrating... (way cold)update #2 12/28 my scooter shipped from baltimore md. pitt ohio terminal to cherry hill newjersy terminal @3:45 this morning? They trucked it from balt md. Past my house in Delaware & took it to Cherry hill nj. Not the most logical idea ive heard of? 12/29 called by shipper to be deliveredon 1/2/18 between 12 -3:00 so should arrive by 4:30 lol. 1/2/18 it arrived safe & sound crated up well without a scratch. Pics soon to follow. Spent 15 hours in single digit temps trying to get frozen diesel equiptment to start . At work today. Im toast!

Well i recieved my new zummer on 1/2 /18 . Opened crate all is in good condition , EXCEPT....they didn't include the mco/ certificate of origin! They said it should have been with scoot(NOT) , said they will send a certificate of origin via mail.....not feeling too good about this already! But ill wait to see where the drama leads! Paid via paypal , so hopefully i could file a claim if they jerk me around? Hope they aren't going to stick it upzy my backside!
