I've done no research on this but I thought with my college classes spread out and the cold whether a comin that a segway would be a stylish way to get around, anyone know where I can get one and for how much, nothing fancy just a basic one, new or used.

How spread out are they? Really no offense, but segway= fat ass and you look really fucking dumb that you can't walk a couple hundred feet.

I'd rather save the cash and just walk. Some people will think it's cool you have one, and some will make fun of you (same with just about anything).

I think Amazon.com is one of the only places to get one. They would be your best bet.

I kill people who ride Segways.
Also they are easy targets for mugging since only stupid rich people buy them.

I acually met the guy who invented it and was extremely shocked at how small he was.

Unless your classes are miles apart walk or get a gay looking bike so no one will steal it.

Get a scooter. Easy to use, cheap, and some other stuff.

Those things look ridiculous. I saw a couple riding on a pair. I would rather jerk off with sand paper than to be seen on one of those things.

Well following your logic, it makes sense that Shaq has one

Well since the maximum speed of a Segway is 12.5 mph I wouldn't exactly call it an alternative to a car, more like a horribly expensive alternative to a bicycle. The Postal Service actually bought at least 80 of the things to test if they would be a better alternative for carriers to use while delivernig mail and even they determined they were useless. Now I guess they are sitting in a warehouse somewhere.

hmmmmm segway or beer, video game and food money for the next year or more...that's a toughie.

also, you realize that you will be known for the rest of college as "that guy with the segway" even long after it's stolen and trashed :lol:

Holy fuck, they're still $4000?

How can they charge that much when barely anyone buys them?

(for the record, I'd probably get one on clearance for $100 or less)

Because a few places use them, apperently the parking attendants at Disney World love them.
