In fairness, I (a from-the-cradle Car Guy) got confused and frustrated when I saw a Reliant Robin. And every time I see one of those Polaris Slingshot dealies. Fuck those things.

Wow, I never knew that; thank you!

I appreciate your pun, but also that’s a really cool idea and I want it in real life.

That would actually be really sweet.

Well... I’d be okay if it fell off. As long as it grew itself back in the spring in lovely hues of green and the occasional blossom-white.

My first internal response to this was “what the fuck?!?”. Then I thought about this....
