Cons:

  1. Their large turning radius make it difficult to use the Pursuit XL inside a home or an assisted living facility, but it’s great for outdoor use.
  2. The steering column is not for people with weak arms or upper body, as it takes a bit of effort to push the delta tiller, especially if the vehicle is not moving.
  3. It is not a general-purpose scooter, and people with leg weakness would have an extremely difficult time getting on or off the scooter.
  4. The scooter seems to be designed for riding longer distances, probably on roads, so the horn could really use more decibels.
  5. Finally, this scooter has warnings regarding exposure to water. Given that this particular scooter is specifically designed as an all-terrain vehicle, one would think that the manufacturers should make this particular scooter a bit more water resistant.

The Pursuit XL is what you should consider pursuing. It is a heavy duty scooter with an array of amazing features. If you live on a farm or are outdoors regularly then this is your ideal partner.

Finally, this scooter has all the same warnings as other Pride scooters regarding exposure to water. Given that this particular scooter is specifically designed as an all-terrain vehicle, one would think that Pride should make this particular scooter a bit more water resistant.
