I can just imagine Lindsay Lohan getting out of that car in a short skirt (or maybe not Lindsay, but if Kate Beckinsale buys one......)

What you call success in Europe I call a limitation of freedoms in the states.

Paying a toll to use a road already paid for by fuel taxes is also a limitation of freedom.

Europe can limit road use all they want, and charge what ever fees they want.

I could give to poops what they pay for a gallon of fuel there. Here in the USA we have tons of it, and it can be cheap.

The USA is NOT Europe nor are we packed up as tight as Europe.

Last week I drove 2900 miles in a standard comfortable mini-van with the AC blasting. It could go 400 miles on a 5 minute fueling. It had to stop more often for the young riders to “potty”.

I could not even get my family of 4 in to a smart car or this motorized bicycle let alone all or gear for camping.

A question:

How does she move the pedals up and down without her knees hitting the steering wheel?

Now THAT is Gay in a Golf Cart. It couldn’t be more gay if they named it the Gay Gayerson Eggmobile.

A box on wheels with no fresh air supply. Guess you keep going until you either run out of gas or breathable air.

Three to a space? Why, are we out of space? Maybe cities should stop trying to cram everyone into a square mile just for tax collection purposes.

If you’ve seen these things stacked up like cord wood for parking..

Did you have the same thought I did?

How does the driver of the car in the middle get his out?

Funny you should mention that! I just brought Kate home with me for the night - picked her up at the Redbox, in Walmart... No short skirt for her, though - when she wasn't wearing her usual painted-on vampire outfit, she was nekkid!! :-)

In Europe, one of the hardest things to find is a parking space...............
