'Cause you can't take a bike on the interstate.

In the meantime, they're kinda cool, if you don't have a family.

I have a family - I'm lookin' at a Taurus or Camry wagon or a Sedona!

I'd rather drive this in the rain than a bike.

There was a report on these some months ago. They're apparently rather more crashworthy than they look -- though one would be subjected to more Gs than a heavier car in a crash.

Can you drive these things on the fairway?

I don't think so. LOL

The tires are too narrow, and there's no room for the clubs and beer. Essentially these cars are just short haul "low and slow" short distances. Not meant for normal driving activities.
