    The radio had a teenage guy who tried to roof-surf on top of one of these yesterday -

    Predictably, he fell off about as fast as a drunken urban cowboy on an electrical bull ride at Gilley's.

    At 65 mph.

    Yes, he is in the hospital for multiple injuries, and yes - alcohol was involved.

    Great to hear they are working on that youth demographic.

    The real demographic for these cars is old folks. Toyota was not happy when they found out that the Scion was a favorite of old tighwads looking for a chap car.

    ^ And the 'youth market' was not happy when they learned that the cars being designed for them were exactly the same ugly slow crap toyota was selling to their parents.
    :) Serves toyota right imho
