I hear ya. But look at that "Think" I just posted a picture of. The one on the right looks nice.

The Segway is the biggest piece of cr*p - it's a useless $3000 toy being marketed by lies about how wonderful and innovative and city-altering this junkpile is. What a load of bullcr*p.

Paint the one on the left purple and market it as "The Grape."
I dunno, that "Think" looks like it could get lost under the couch too easily.
Personally I'm a Pathfinder kinda guy, but to each his own. Mileage would probably be pretty good. I used to have a soft spot for the SNL "Adobe", made in Mexico with moldable bumpers for easy repairs(just add water).

I would like to have one of those things. You see, I'm 80, lost a leg, have defibrillator and pacemaker implants, poor circulation and damaged lungs. My head works OK... I just need a way to get my head from one place to another. I was looking forward to the possibility of owning one of those great gadgets.

Segway Human Transporter (also known as "Ginger" or "IT")That's the problem. Ginger was a bimbo.

The story apparently is a mixup, and production of the Segway is continuing.

For the price of a car, you can have a Segway. Not the best marketing pitch.

We have a Mountaineer, but I don't object to using a small vehicle in town. My wife uses the Mountaineer as I think it's a very safe vehicle.

Muttly need sidecar for ammunition.
Also to give Ginger a ride.

How long until the first Broward County snowbirds are plastered in their 'two-seater' by Miss Daisy's maurading Cadillac? Cha-ching.
I was anticipating the day when I would see one of the things alongside the street with various parts stolen off of it (like the bicycle frame currently locked to a parking meter in front of my office building - picked clean of every detachable part). Darn.

Not to mention that some publishing company has already paid close to $300,000 for the story behind IT.
And to think this thing has the backing of Jeff Bezos and Bill Gates.

I read in Investor's Business Daily that Ford is discontinuing all of there "Think" products. I thought they were so promissing. I confirmed that they are gone at Galpin Ford yesterday when I was over there. The salesman were in shock that they were not even given a chance!
