Would you ride a PUMA?

    I mean PUMA (Personal Urban Mobility & Accessibility) jointly developed by Segway & GM. How long do you think the novelty will last?

    That thing is so ridiculous. If they can make it for under $3,000, people may buy it. Who would waste $8-10k on something that only gets 35 miles per charge.

    I think it's a great innovation; we gotta start somewhere. Angus, wouldn't you rather use it in a really large town? I think the benefits are that it's compact so it can maneuver & park easily -- something difficult to do in a big city with a full-size traffic-chocking car with one person in it.

    I like to see it ride over a speed bump.
