They should have made them a little longer and dropped the driver's seat into a recumbent position, so the passengers didn't have to stare at their butt the whole way . . . but those are way cool anyway

Possibly it could also reduce the effort and the driver's fatigue.

They have them around Arizona State University and I rode one from Oktoberfest to where I parked.



People ask "The Oktoberfest in Phoenix?"
"Munich."
"Oh."

Does that make it less interesting?
