    Buying A Electric Scooter: A Good Idea?

    The Cool 2 model had 800 watts, I thought it has more but I was mistaken. It has exactly the same battery/motor as the Joy but the wheels seem to be better, it has a digital meter, the frame is in the first wheel, I wonder if this makes the difference of 3.000 pesos (20k pesos is the price)...

    Buying A Electric Scooter: A Good Idea?

    I'm tired of the public transport: colectivos are extremely cheap but also extremely slow, the subte is ok but accustomed to the metro in Barcelona and Amsterdam this sucks, it's filthy, it covers only a small part of the city and the taxis...expensive and outside the centre difficult to get one...

    Buying Property In Argentina

    I want to buy here 'cause I'm half Argentinean and I will keep on coming to BsARs. I may live here a couple of months a year.

    So Hospital Italiano Sucks, Which Alternative?

    wow, so many choices: OSDE, Medicus, Galeno, Union Personal. I heard good things about Swiss Medical too. So many choices make a decision difficult.
