It's a little sad that we need to actually say this, but:
Don't be an asshole or you will be permanently banned.
Respectful debate is totally OK, criticizing a product is fine, but being verbally abusive will not be tolerated.
Focus on discussing the idea, not attacking the person.

If there is a scooter claiming all that, under $1000, you would probably be at greater risk of dying while riding it vs scooters from companies you could sue for liability and will state their specs appropriately.
Have you considered getting her socks to protect her paws?
She has thermal boots, but even with those I worry at the temps we get when I can feel the heat through my shoes.
Given the payload requirement and the trailer, would an electric bike be acceptable? Yes, it would be larger but is also more dynamically stable than an e-scooter at the same speed. And the bike trailer wouldn't need much changed at all to attach to a bike.
For an all-in-one solution, an electric trike might also work, with the benefit that your dog can ride in the basket straddling the rear axle. Although electric trikes don't tend to come in below $1k USD.
I am steering away from an e-bike because in the off season when I can let her run with me, I want the scooter over the bike.
I remember when razr scooters were the thing to have and my kids had them. I loved riding theirs but always wanted a grown up sized one.
But if I am unable to find an escooter, I may go the bike route
I looked at some bikes last night, way more than I thought I was to be paying for this idea.
How much were those ebikes priced at?
Pulling weight is different than standing weight. If you're 300lbs and just don't want to admit it, that's fine. But it you really are pulling your dog in a trailer hitched to the scooter... well, a couple things come to mind.
First, you can probably tow 75lbs and pay only in acceleration and battery life; her weight won't significantly contribute to the max load rating of the scooter.
Second, the bigger issue I'd worry about is breaking. Maybe it'd be OK; that's where the load bearing rating would be important.
I am 250ish, the majority I saw were 265 weight limit. I carry a rather heavy backpack, so even without the dog in the equation I would want something around 300.
I got you fam. I'm fat as shit and need a cheap scooter for my fatAss. any recommendations?
How much are the ones lime or whatever use? Their load rating must be wild, because I’ve seen at least 3 people ride one at the same time…
