That hurricane caused a lot of cancellations and rescheduling. I always book at least 30 days out, when my package is paid in full.When they dropped off my scooter today, I mentioned that I set it up and paid for it the day they announced galaxy edge because I was worried about them selling out and the guy said they are indeed sold out but he thinks it is more rescheduling after the hurricane.
The driver that pick up my scooter mentioned that to. He also said the company ordered a hundred new scooters coming in over the next 7 days to accommodate more last minute reservations. I booked my reservation a month in advance myself all three times. It took one time seeing all of the beat to death tattered scooters people are renting from other companies to be a wake up call. I'll be sure to always plan ahead to make sure I get a GMS scooter. I booked my holiday trip all-ready.That hurricane caused a lot of cancellations and rescheduling.

I'll tell you what I did. I shop a lot off tv and found a California innovation s tote bag, insulated. You could change the straps and wear as a back pack. We hooked it over the arm of the chair (the arm rest being the "back".) We put our belongings in there and used the basket just for our refillable mugs, sunglasses.Just wish their front baskets were a smidge larger.
That’s why I always get the rear basket too. It’s been such a help, and only caused any problem once-when I was in a small elevator at the Poly.Just wish their front baskets were a smidge larger.
What did you think of the Maxima 3 wheel? I'm trying to decide between the Victory 10 3 wheel and the Maxima 3 wheel. I'm looking for the best maneuverability and comfort.We just came back from our DW trip yesterday. This was our third experience using Gold Mobility Scooters. The first two trips we rented the Victory 10 scooter in four wheel. This trip we tried the new Maxima 3 wheel rental.
I'm about 390-400 lbs and for me the Maxima 3 wheel seemed more stable and was a smoother ride. If I were 300 lbs or less I would have considered the Victory 10 3 wheel again. I've used both and the turning radius was great on both. All three trips the scooters I rented from Gold Mobility where all just like brand new so i think it comes down to weight.What did you think of the Maxima 3 wheel?

Wouldn't the rear wire 'box' make it too long to fit on the Disney buses, though?
I always bring a backpack and all our ponchos, snacks etc go in there. I just put current drinks and my folding cane in the front basket, along with my park bag.
Also, if you chose the canopy\sun shade, you cannot use a rear basket. Both items attach to the same bracket.The wire box is an issue half the time- the front slot for ecv on the bus is too short for the wire, the back spot is fine.
Not sure if this has been posted somewhere on this particular thread but I guess Disney requested that Gold Mobility not send out those 40-page booklets on how the scooters work. This is per the email I received from Gold Mobility when I inquired when I would be receiving mine.
Why on earth not? What else was in the booklet besides operating instructions for the scooter? Enquiring Minds Want To Know!
