California Commuter

I haven't made much progress on my vehicle - a combination of too many other projects, too much overtime and "option paralysis" (a condition brought about by being unable to choose between a number of equally attractive choices). But I am making some forward progress: I have a number of framing pieces cut (3/8" nomex honeycomb/carbon fiber panels) for a composite monocque TREV-inspired vehicle, and purchased a welder and some tubing for an updated version of California Commuter, so I am trying to solve the "options paralysis" problem by working two projects in parallel and deciding on such things as joysticks vs. handlebars, independent front suspension vs. beam...as the problems come up. I have started a new job that will involve less OT and a much easier commute so with luck I should have at least one of them rolling by the fall.
