Oh good, another monstrously expensive thing to break the day after the warranty runs out!

Definitely a heck of a llot better idea than the Puma. I llove it. But it won't carry a llama. I could put a llama in my Puma, but that seems like a llot of trouble. Maybe llater.

Phew, that'll save me a trip to the used-llama llot. Those high-pressure salesmen are brutal.

@.357:Half Man-Half Amazing: Maybe a lladder, but they could have used an llavator too.

The thing I've never liked about Segway technology is that it relies on good traction to provide a stable base for balancing. However, this being New Hampshire, road surfaces spend more than half the year covered with ice, snow, or rain. Can you say "wipe out?" It's not foul-weather friendly at all.

@Murilee Martin: D'Oh, so he does! *FWUMP*

I think Honda's decision has less to do with any technical aspects and everything to do with marketing.

@saimis: It's called "winter." Two inches of snow and a Camaro or Mustang is done. Plus, some people like cars that go like hell, handle well, and yet can still haul stuff.

@JCWhitless: Yeah, that pretty well described it, but hey, it was fun as hell anyway! Especially when that poor woman was trying to make a phone call to her parents while in camera range. "My parents are seeing this!"

Nice to see a "real" Saab 3-door out there in the lead. Swedish Meatballs for everyone!

He's not *totally* upside down.

Very cool, and so far I've managed to avoid two hours worth of chores I should be doing!

@muhnkee_2 - jaloping from sunny sao paulo: If you can't beat 'em, join 'em?

@nj_hoon: That was the first thing I thought of when I read this thread!

@Turbineguy: Unfortunately, I think he's still in the gene pool, so best he could hope for is honorary mention.

@FormerlyPreferredCustomer: More snow? A copy of Anne Murray's greatest hits?

@ptschett survived the Fargo flood and all he got was this s...: True, it could be useful for the rural-dwelling crowd, although I'd like to see it with true AWD. It looks good, but then again I've always been a sucker for European design.

I think it looks pretty sharp, but I have this thing against useless "posermobiles." If it isn't actually an AWD vehicle and it can't actually go offroad, it's pointless.

Crap, Jalopnik is out of both Hightlights and Men's Health...all they have left over is GM stock :(
