Man, that handful of blessed dudes who spent decent portions of their lives and mental capital trying to earn "good karma" and up-votes on their freely delivered help and fixes.

660cc engine at ~40 horsepower is about the same as a mid-70s VW Beetle - not in cc size, but HP potential.
This little truck could do a lot more than 25 mph if it were allowed to do so. Not saying that would be safe, and I'd not want to ever put one on a busy freeway, but for getting around most urban cities in the US it's fine as-is but would be even better if the limit was ~40 mph.
I was once an avid reader of Salon when I was younger and lived in the Bay Area. I'd check in almost daily going back to when George Bush Jr was in office pointing his finger at Saddam Hussein.
One of my later work friends, who became my CTO at InfoWorld, had worked at Salon as his previous gig. He spoke fondly of his time there. Salon was always digital-only long before that was chic in the magazine business. At InfoWorld we weren't forced to do it until the mid-2000s, a good 10 years after Salon did in the mid-90s, when the internet was just awakening in pop culture.
I stopped reading Salon over 15 years ago, but it's still surprising to see. That includes realizing they lasted this long in the first place through all the ups and downs (mostly downs) of the low CPM ad markets.
Man, I would love to get a replacement gear for my early days electronic eject external Macintosh 3.5" floppy drive made in stone instead of plastic. Heck yeah!
I wish we could get the great new PROLED XDR screen w/o touch (if that saved $$) so we could take advantage of the new brightness/contrast and not worry about gestures on the glass.
