I'm looking at renting ECVs for our upcoming trip (Mom and I both need one) and I'm noticing that there are 3 wheeled and 4 wheeled ones. I'm lost! Which is better? :confused:

I think the 3 wheeled turns a little sharper. The four wheeled is much more stable to drive. (Not that the 3 wheeled jobs are flipping over left and right)
I use my 6 wheel "Scooter Store" Ride. Well its really a electric chair. I found that to be the best for lines as it can spin and turn. Its also fun for doing 360's in my hotel room... :laughing:
I've used both and do find that the 3-wheel scooters do have a tighter turning radius. However, both do just fine.
I have used both.I prefer the three wheelers because of the tighter radius,but have used a 4 wheeler that turned almost as sharp.
My wife has her own 3 wheeler and has several years experience using it, but she did a flip with it in MK a few weeks ago. She was going up Main Street and her front wheel fell into the trolley track and she got dumped off. It took her a while to get back on her feet, but she was OK, just a bit sore.
For our stay on property, I rented a heavy duty ECV from Apple Scooters and had no complaints with it.
I am a recent scooter convert I used to live on my rollator and love it, however recently I have been converted and love the zippiness of a scooter. I am also in the Pooh Bear sized family and found no problems as long as you find one that is rated to your size, the few companies I have checked out in orlando are rated for up to 400bs. If you get a chance my only advice is practice backing up for getting onto the ramp of the Disney Bus ( I still need my own landing crew :D )
