  • I wanted an e-scooter to tool around my local airport and to occasionally take with me. I am not an expert on these e-scooters but did educate myself on the various options from the leading manufacturers. I settled on this GoTrax GXL V2 from Costco. This video is unboxing, basic assembly, and usage review.

    Thanks for watching!

    How much does it weigh? How do I lock it up if I’m going inside a business to shop? Or a museum? Does it take to a bike cable lock? I may not want it coming inside with me everywhere.

    Now that you've had this for a few months do you still like it? There are a lot of reviews about the rear wheel cover breaking from the base. Do you think it will be sturdy for the long run? Solid and well made?

    I’m shopping for 2 for my girlfriend and I. These will be our first entry into E scooters. I’ve been reading that customer service is difficult.
    If we bought these from Costco, I imagine they will honor any returns or customer service issues?

    Thanks for the great video!
    I have read a couple places that there IS a RED Tail light option available for this on the GoTrax website. I have not checked their site yet.
    I would also assume that if they have a kit, that you could also rig one up yourself from spare parts or whatever.
    This scooter is only $248 on Amazon right now (May 2020). Thought I might wait for a sale, but sounds like that's a great deal from the comments here.

    Congratulation Christian. Useful (not only for the airport) equipment. Great stuff for the boys. What is the approved "MTOW" of this e scooter? Another highlight of this clip was.....I have seen a small part of the N118CS (only prop and spinner) again. Now she have celebrated her 8th birthday. Long time we havn´t seen actual clips and pictures of your nice PA-18. Have you finished the floats project? Greetings from germany.

      @cgsturm  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Greetings! Yes, my first flight video was 9 years ago! Hard to believe. I am working on a new video about changing the prop to Whirlwind. Not significant progress on floats for a while.
      Will be providing additional updates here on YT. Thank you!

    oh heck no i bought my scooter back in 2018 from Costco and to my surprise this is only lasted till july. it was annoying first of all to get a hold of customer service where they are not helpful at all. to top things this is ridiculous because they could not assist on it because i was past the warranty on the item i could not use the scooter until April of this year because of the winter. i decided to return it back to Costco and get me the segway and it works wonders.

    • @darlingba
      @darlingba 5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      It just simply die on me. It turns on you can see it on the screen but the wheel will not pull forwarded when push. I try everything taking it apart to make sure the battery was not loose but that was not it because it was turning on. At this point i no longer have the scooter as it was return back to Costco.
