They've been making golf carts for a long time. Nothing really new here except maybe a large price tag and a Fed subsidy.

If this thing gets on a real road and gets hit, it'll look like a soccer ball going down the field.

The Messaih Mobile, aka the Obama Bug.

You *will* buy one, made by former Chrysler workers, or one just like it made in a former GM plant, by former GM workers, after Obama is effectively the CEO of both GM and Chrysler, or what is left of them. It's basically a plastic electric golf cart with four mesh seats.

And you *will* like it!

Jawhol?

“In contrast, when it rains the current open GEM design must be enclosed with accessory cab components if you want to stay dry.”

Do you mean to say the podmobile has no sides? Do people just fly out when it’s hit/in an accident? Is this part a population decrease plan?

I saw this on the “today” show this morning - Matt Lauer got in it for a ride and absolutely panicked when the guy test driving it almost blew through the intersection through a red light.

I think watching it get T-boned by a taxi would have been the ultimate irony.

The guy said it was a mere $12,500. That is some golf cart.

>>a futuristic neighborhood electric vehicle, or NEV

Hmm. It’s designed to be used near your home, huh?

If the people that buy this thing care so much about the planet, RIDE A BIKE! “Save” the planet, get some exercise, lose some weight, enjoy the ride. If the iPod is so important, bring it along too.

At work they shuttle people from building to building in one of these.

So far I've managed to avoid it.
