I had a Samurai also (bought new for a few dollars during the C/R scare) and liked it also although the 68 mph top speed was kind of limiting on the highway. Fine for around town. A crosswind did have it up on two wheels once coming across a Cascades pass - exciting!!!
I don’t think the women in my life who may be driving this on occasion will go for a Samurai. They’ll find the rollover controversy and nix it on the spot, most likely. Then, it’s a lot more spartan and utilitarian. Personally, I’d like that. They won’t.
