So let me get this straight ... the marketing of these cars is directed at watermelon leftists who are stupid enough to still be buying into AGW as their blackened extremities rot and fall off during this winter's long spate of sub-zero temperatures. AND they are buying and driving them, thus increasing their chances of conversion into canned meat at their first encounter with Roadway Newtonian Physics.

Is there any downside to all this?

Living 35 miles from the city, I don’t encounter those little upholstered coffins much unless I’m on the highway-but I do have a trailer hitch on my 4 Runner-for work, of course...

I seem to remember as a kid, there were some of these tiny vehicles that my dad called tennis shoes being touted-by the green people of the day-they disappeared for awhile, so maybe they will do so again...
