GM, Where Have You Been All My Life?


Yes, I’ve got a crush—a crazy, spring is here and I’m in a madcap mood kind of crush. When I saw the first picture of the GM PUMA on Edmunds.com. I had to get more. I’ve been surfing around picking up all kinds of comments about the little chariot (or is it a rickshaw?), pro and con. It’s not safe, it can’t go far enough, fast enough, what will I do with the kids? The dog? My great Aunt Tillie? Blah, blah, blah

Can’t all these naysayers see that this thing is new and bold and innovative and it’s from an American company? I’ve ridden a Segway. They’re got a rental place right here in Long Beach. They’re sturdy and easy to handle and lots of fun. This is the kind of new-fangled jalopy that could get our exhausted country back on the road again.
