Apparently of Ford heritage but now owned and manufactured in Norway. These really look decent. I for one, am very interested. They have a rep established here in the U.S. but are not ready for U.S. debut yet. Anyway, take a gander here. Please pass on your thoughts! PS- They are also making the Th!nk City. |

I know that there are tons of people who will look at them and tell you that they can't be safe or that a Hummer would squash them like a bug. Whatever. I like them and I think that for city driving and the regular commute they're perfect. OK, I just finished watching the THiNK Ox film: http://www.think.no/think/Press-Pict.../TH!NK-Ox-film Yeah, I want one. Last edited by TonyPSchaefer; 08-18-2008 at 10:22 PM. |

Gives the car a personal touch. |

Let's say we are both out and about on the town and wanted to meet. I could send my position to my friend's Th!nk and vice versa. Kinda cool way to social network using the car. Then we could both find a mutually agreeable meeting spot or whatever. Unless of course the car already does this! :-) |

As soon as I can buy a decent sized car (at least as big as my Prius) that gets that kind of range I will dump my Prius and the ICE for good. (I'll still need a truck to move my cows though) It is funny when we start having gas shortages you environmental guys and us survivalists are going to look real smart ![]() |
