Had one for years never had a problem. Way better than a massive truck for tight spaces.

These are perfect for driving around town. Why are we so behind on this when North Dakota already allows it?

We just want to be able to drive our trucks to the hardware store without worry. Makes no sense to ban them.

Gas mileage is great and they work perfect for hauling stuff to my cabin. Hope this passes soon.
