Electric scooter/moped for 2 people?

Question

Is there any electric scooter or moped thats not like hellaaaa expensive? Like, less than 1000 dollars? I need one for me and my friend, because, we need to get around town (gas is like a bagillion dollars), and I have saved up cash and stuff but is there anything for 2 people thats cheapish? I know you can fit 2 people on an electric scooter but its all cramped and blahh. Also, I wouldn't care if it was used, because all that'd do is bring down the price (yay). And, no gas ones, because that kills the environment even more than its already dead. :(

That's pretty hard to find - you would need to look for a used one.  Also, you need to check your state DMV to find out the local moped laws.  In California, unless the moped goes no faster than 20 mph and has pedals, you need a license to ride it.

So first check on the moped laws of your state:

And if you're okay to ride one, then look for a used electric moped.  A good place to look is on Craig's List.

I bought one for $1200 that goes 20 mph and 15 miles per charge, and I'm selling it used for $750.  So that gives you an idea of prices.
