  • @1949beatles

    When I was young, back in the 50's my friend got a 1958 Cushman Pacemaker, and another friend and I got 1958 Cushman Highlanders. We had a great time riding these things around and to school. As I remember - brand new they cost in the $300 range and we got like 75-100 mpg when gas was selling for .29 a gallon!

  • why do I feel the need to buy maxwell house brand instant coffee?

  • @ZILOGz80VIDEOS

    Perhaps, because it's 'good to the last drop'!

    This slogan was brought out in 1917! Egads that's a while back!

  • What episode was this from?

  • @Brdj010

    This is from season 1 episode 3 "The Motor Scooter".

    You can go to the Internet Movie Database, type in Father Knows Best and watch the full episode, among many other full episodes.

  • @tubz2965a Hmm it is.

  • @dkw12002 After a couple of million miles driving big rigs, it is still amazing to me that 80,000 pounds, wind, traffic, stop and go, mountains, that they can get up to seven miles per gallon. Would be cool if we all stopped drinking overpriced water in plastic made from oil.

  • @dkw12002 I liked them too, but ended up with an 88 inch stroked harley shovelhead.

  • @tubz2965a Scooters use a Constantly Variable Transmission which sounds like a centrifugal clutch to me. Anyway even when it slows down, the engine doesn't stall so you could climb a hill easily going walking speed. In fact, I suppose you could walk it up a really steep hill to assist the engine. There's no shifting gears on the newer scooters either..just a throttle and two hand brakes. It's really simple. I put on over 20 miles today running errands on mine. 80 degrees in New Braunfels, TX.
