Levitating Hover Scooter by Hammacher Schlemmer
January 30th, 2006
Hammacher Schlemmer has released the first levitating hover scooter. The Levitating Hover Scooter hovers just a few inches above the ground and travels at up to 15 MPH.
The scooter will be able to travel on any solid ground and even go up inclines. The personal hovercraft will travel up to an hour on a tank of gas.
Acceleration is handled via the throttle ond clutch on the handlebars. To increase acceleration, simply lean forward. Breaking is accomplished by turning off acceleation, and will take about twenty feet of coasting. Turning is handled via leaning left or right.
How much will your Levitating Hover Scooter cost you? Well you can order it online for $16,995.95.

I feel sort of sorry for that poor bastard in the blue shirt who bought that God damned hovercraft to go down to the office and bring about death for money every day. Even the scaytboarders think he’s a tard. He’s the Willy Loman of hovercraft heavers- he’s gunnah wrap his German lips around that whirring fan’s blow-hole any day now and gack gravel. I can feel it.

I bought one of these - I’m the local street pharmacist so money is not really a problem.
Don’t buy this - it’s the biggest piece of shit you could buy. I had more fun standing on top of a crack head & letting him run around.
