No... but it did come with a live video screen that comes on when
I back up the car. Now I like driving down the road backwards
and watch the video screen... it is so cool....

It also keeps the mileage low.

I am going to drive up to Boulder CO (and save on gas on the way) and have a rematch.
I am sick of the reputation that the girls beat me up.



I told my wife that I tried not to enjoy it.

This one gets about 30 miles for about 1.25 in electricity. I'll admit the range is limited, but about 75% of my work is within 10-15 miles.
The dealer I spoke with said some of his buyers were thinking about adding a couple of batteries in the bed to extend the range. It also has a solar panel option.
Now that would be sweet, using this for short trips, and getting a Prius for those further away.

That would be cool to have a small truck like that. I don't think I would handle the Atlanta traffic in that little thing though. The only way I feel safe is in something big, I hate driving my wifes car in the traffic.

I wish they had a small truck like a Nissan Frontier or Tacoma that was Hybrid and got 48 mpg.
