Would be better if it was a BAY BUS!!!
Up, up the long, delirious, burning blue, I’ve topped the wind-swept heights with easy grace. Where never lark, or even eagle flew. And, while with silent, lifting mind I've trod, The high untrespassed sanctity of space, Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.

Ah come on, scooters are all the latest rage. After you suck up the pride a little they are fun as hell. Here's my current ride. 60mph and still gets 80mpg. What's not to like? I can't remember the last time I put gas in my gas hog F150.

They nailed the subtle curves of the bus body. Really well done.

Rode a scooter for a while in Chicago, a lil 50cc Honda. It was fun in a WWI biplane combat way, everyone trying to make you into burgers. When my Beetle broke down I rode it in the winter - 12 degrees! Yikes.

I would be dead inside a week driving one of those to work and back. Although I could make that to the Bus stop. Cold I could endure, the rain I couldn't.
