Scooter

Scooter is a citizen of New Haven, though he used to live in Fyrestone. He is a well-practiced mechanic and tinkerer, keeping the vehicle depots up and running. He is most renowned and recognized for his redneck/appalacian accent and stylistic speech.

Background
Scooter was named after his sister. Ironically, his father was killed or paralyzed in a car accident. His mother is revealed to be Mad Moxxi during the course of The Secret Armory of General Knoxx. He also says that he finally killed Lucky Zaford, and he is presumed the "dirtbag and a cheat" that Moxxi calls her first husband as well.

Involvement
Scooter maintains the Catch-A-Rides and built the Outrunners that players can use to drive around Pandora. Once the player arrives in New Haven, he will also hand out some missions, including one to check on his old friend T.K. Baha.

He also needs help to build the new vehicles in The Secret Armory of General Knoxx

Trivia

 * Sometimes, the Catch-A-Ride will say that his father is paralyzed, but Scooter himself says "Bless his run-over soul" when referring to his father, hinting that he is dead. It is likely that his father is paralyzed, since he could have been paralyzed due to being run over.
 * He looks a lot like the presenter Simon King of the BBC.
 * As shown by a billboard in T-Bone Junction, Scooter endorses Clitz brand beer, with the slogan "It's what's under the hood".
 * Lucky Zaford can still be found in Lucky's Watering Hole after Scooter states that he killed him in The Secret Armory of General Knoxx.
 * The name "scooter" could also have been refering to the mechanic in Duke of Hazard named "cooter".
 * Scooter apparently wanted to see Steele naked.
 * Scooter says that Mad Moxxi is his mother.
