Jim Melville's answer to common questions

Last update: May 6, 2008 - 8:26 PM

Mileage? 40 miles per gallon

What does it have in it? A 70-horsepower engine, tucked in like a briefcase

What's the ride like? "If you drove rough roads it would beat the hell out of you."

Storage space? On a trip, room for two suitcases and an ice chest; shopping, room for 4 to 5 grocery bags

I wouldn't want to have an accident with a semi in that thing! "I wouldn't want to in my truck, either."
