No big initial cash outlay, no insurance to worry about, no fueling to deal with, no maintenance costs, no parking issues or garage space required, no personal or vehicle licenses required, no worries about the teen kids using it, and more.
Very profound changes coming to our cities and suburbs because of this, and perhaps sooner than some can expect, though I will always hold fond memories of my Tahiti blue, 1975 Jensen Healey with a 5-speed (standard) racing transmission. |
