How would you like to be in that... on the Jersey Turnpike during the ride home from work?

Utterly stupid design. The engineers oughta be shot. OK, not really. But you get the point.

What kind of idiot designs a vehicle that cannot be entered in the rain without exposing the entire front cabin area to the rain?

Fools.

That's what I was thinking - I wouldn't want to be in that thing on the "I-20/59 Motor Speedway, 18 Wheeler Division" between B'ham and Tuscaloosa.

Yeah, it would make a cute hood ornament on a Mack. Or a speed bump.

A Mack truck driver wouldn’t even notice running over speed bumps like these....

Not sure... but it’s no joke. The pic was taken in La Gomera... one of the Canary islands.

My lawn tractor has more hp! Turbodiesel hybrids do make a lot of sense though.

LOL. He might see blurry, bloody mist in the rear-view though...

Neat, you can drive your destination, then put the “car” in your backpack, instead of looking for a parking space.

Hey, when I was hitchhiking in Europe in the sixties they had things made out of corrugated galvanized steel with no paint. Inside the passengers sat on plastic webbing like lawn chairs. Why not revive those, too. Do it in time for the Recreate 68 demonstrations in Denver. s/

The car shown above is NO artist drawing. It's an actual prototype, which could be seen at a number of auto expos already.

You accuse me of cheap talk while being too lazy to use Google? ;).
