Question:
they are tiny and not very powerful. If i lived in a smaller city and used it for getting around town, maybe. It's more like a toy.
Answers:
1) lower maintainance costs (smaller, simpler parts)
2) better fuel economy (as good on highways as a Prius, I've heard, and without battery-replacement cost problems)
3) better manueverability to avoid accidents
4) better price
5) advanced enforcements (think the same strength as rollcages used in race cars) and stability control means it is not less safe than larger cars, contrary to popular belief (this is also part of why they cost more than expected)...it provides almost scooter-like fuel economy without the dangers
6) Some say "it doesn't have enough power". But my response to that is "hey, if someone rear-ends me b/c I'm not fast enough for them they are the ones paying for it, not me".
7) It's not at all a good "chick pickup" type of car, but I'm in a great relationship so I don't have to give a, well.... :-)

It's a lot more than a "cute toy". Although I wish Toyota, Honda, or another reputable Japanese manufacturer would make a similar product, with a better reliability record than Daimler/Chrysler.

I would buy one if I lived in Europe as they are more popular over there, as oppossed to not even out yet here really. They fit europe better it seems. America is too busy making our cars more and more massive well the rest of the world is making them smaller and more fuel efficient. so no, i wouldnt have one unless i lived in europewhat kind of problems can be expected with 04 grad cherokee?
It's about the same as driving a scooter, in the right place they are great. And the gas mileage is to die for. Unfortunately the mentally of most North American (and likely other places) drivers is that they are target practice. I would have one in a heartbeat if I knew everyone sharing the road with me was a respectful and responsible driver. You know the ones I mean, they are not talking on their cell phone, reading the paper, feeding the baby in the car seat in the back, applying their make-up, dictating the minutes from their board meeting last nite and lastly they believe the road is for all motorists, not just them.Where is the heater control valve on a 1990 Bronco II with the 2.9 liter V6?
