You guys haven't seen my latest modeling shots
You got a point about feed ing the horse! But there's no comp or collision needed.That's a nice offset right there to make me happy!I'm seriously thinking I need to street legal the buggy .Not great milage but better than the duramax and loads more fun! Geez rusty I had no idea you were so -------big!

Even so it's as bizarre as the fat guy who weighs 1100 lBs and can't service his bathing needs.

Here's a vote for taking the mini to work. Diff is I'm gonna do it!

I'm thinking seriously about it also.I have 2 ways to work.5 miles all paved or 6 miles with 3 of them an unmaintained road running along the river.That'd make the drive to/from a lot more fun.

I was reading about a company that's producing cars that run off of gas vapor. They use old 92-95 Civic Vtec engines. The really cool part is there turbo'd, make tons of power and are incredibly fuel efficient. I believe they were in the 100 mpg range but also did 0-60 in less than 5 seconds. I might have to do some searching because they where also 3 wheeled cars but looked much cooler than the Aptera.

Nice concept, 75K is rather expensive though.
