And make sure to park it next to this:

Not to mention cities banning them for their users leaving them in haphazard manners on the sidewalks. When the user is done, the scooter just has to find a nice, out of the way nook to wait for the next user, or move to a place that’s in higher demand.

but you just do not understand the engineering that would go into what you/they are proposing.

Counterpoint:

This is why everyone hates moral philosophy professors.

Setting aside the fact that self-reported surveys can be flawed

As far as ‘proving your point’... I wasn’t disagreeing. Hell, it’s more in line with your other two descriptions. It’s a shoddy facsimile of what it promises, and overpriced. But probably pretty fun.

I once got two parking tickets in the one day that between when a parking sign got moved so that my previously acceptable parking spot was now no longer park, and me getting back to my car.

Cmon, man. Those tendies are now lightly coated in leaked motor oil.

Double Secret Probation for Carlos!

... yes. That’s how radioluminescence works.

Beta radiation released by Tritium has a very low ionization potential, and while it’s more penetrative than alpha radiation you’d certainly be safe inside the car, and a proper clearcoat would make it completely safe all around.

Tritium’s half life is ~12 years, so after ~12 years they will glow half as bright.

Could also be tritium-infused radioluminescent paint.

I think it was more the official method of MPGe calculation, so (IIRC) GM calculated a full range of full battery + 1 gallon of gas.

Good thing manufacturers NEVER project overly optimistic figures...

Up front, sure. My question is more about longevity.

Yeah, if the oil holds up, I’m all about it. But that’s a big ‘if’ when talking about something that can ruin a pretty expensive asset...

So, are replica cars real art now?
