There is a guy here in Sequim that has a Staton Inc motor conversion on his tadpole trike. He averages over 200mpg with a top speed of about 40mph. He headed out for W Virginia year before last but only made it to Wisc before breaking a leg. That trike is his principle form of transportation year round. I see him all over the Olympic Peninsula on it. His is bare, not even a faring. With the faring and bodies available, it is feasible in quite a few areas to use one for regular transportation/shopping.
