Looking to grow old in style? The Maverick ($4,699) from Drive Medical combines the comfort of a mobility scooter with the outlaw look of a retro motorcycle. Anti-tip wheels keep the operator safe even at the rig's top speed of 9.5 mph, and the battery has a range of 30 miles. Along with a deluxe captain's seat that swivels and reclines, the Maverick comes with all the standard turn signals and hazard lights plus a smoked-glass windshield. Best of all: "No helmet required!"
