All of the problems of an old Mercedes and all the problems of a stretched custom frame?

This looks like it drives just wonderfully.

A tiny house is and always will be just a trailer. And a tiny house with a motor is just an RV.

I would assume that if they made it with 4 wheels, it would be a car and not a motorcycle and have to have a ton of regulations applied.

Give it a rear-axle conversion kit and you can call me a chump whenever you like.

Some guy had one of these with his lady in the car. I wasnt in the mood for a race or even really trying to drive fast. But he must have thought I wanted to... So he keeps weaving around other cars to catch up to me driving like a real tool.

“This is a short ride show bike,”

This is exactly why the only motorcycles that should exist are the WeeStrom, the DRZ400, and the GoldWing. Everything else is just nonsense! Form after function! No fun for anyone else! Nothing!

I guess:
Because people are willing to pay the price.

But less cynically:
Because economies of scale mean car companies can leverage literally hundreds of millions of dollar to streamline production and get the price of a car down to as low as possible, at which point they lower the price for consumers... HAHAHAHAHA.
But…

I never understood why things like this and golf carts cost as much as a car.

Couple things here...

I dated a girl in college (OU) who lived right next to a Braum’s. That relationship was good in sooo many ways, but the development of the Sugar-shock Express Sundae was the most lasting:
Double-dip Brownie Fudge Sundae, no nuts
1 dip of German Chocolate
1 dip of Chocolate Chip
Extra whipped cream.

Americans buy what, 17 million cars a year? At an average price north of 36 grand? These kind of folks are who this article is geared towards.

I hope part of your plan is to not drive with your highbeams on 100% of the time.

As someone who grew up in OK (farm kid from the flat/brown/ugly part) here’s my karmic contribution:
Whilst traveling through OK, make it a point to hit a Braum’s. Their burgers, etc are only fair but their ice cream is worth driving for. I’m currently banished to the barren hellscape of S. Texas but have been known to…

Don’t assume every random person you see is on a personal crusade to kill you specifically because you’re a democrat this time. 

My stupid car decided it wanted to destroy the engine a month ago - thrusting me suddenly and unwillingly into this terrible, terrible market. After a couple weeks of goggling at the insane prices, I came to this same conclusion and decided to get a car that I could drive for a few years.

Because you want traction when the weather isn’t perfect?

You have been a lovely, lovely, witness!
