the way i see it. if u dont live all that far from work. this is a great alternative for transportation IF the weather permits. still doesnt change the fact that americans need to get more fuel efficient cars. i cant really speak because i have an escalade but i bought a crx to help out. escalade will be the family vehicle when i have a kid/s

You'd make it halfway down the street and get beaned by some old man backing out of his driveway...seen it a thousand times.
