I looked into some of the suggestions and have come to a conclusion. No matter how you slice it if I remove the purchase price from the calculation of cost per mile, the Ruckus wins every time. the best case being if I only consider gas and maintenance costs, which makes the civic $0.14/mi and the Ruckus %0.05/mile.

This is purely financial. the real economics have to take more, less quantifiable, data into consideration. I don't plan on selling either of these vehicles any time soon. The scooter's fun factor cannot be denied, and the civic fills all my other transportation needs.
