I'm sorry,and I mean no disrespect,but it is kind of foolish to beleive or state that that thing is practical for everyone.

That will not,for most people,even come close to meating their needs and would only be operable in fair weather conditions.

I really can't see making atrip to the grocery store for a family,or hauling children to school,or driving yourself 20+ miles to work on a highway on that.

have you been abroad? Man, in all the major EU cities i have been in the scooter is a huge player. Problem is, there is also very good mass transportation to fall back on over there, and since most of Europe is built up instead of out, like the states, it is hard for them to relate to just how far things are apart for half the US population.
