Nooooooooooooooooo - no no no no non I like my stuff to work - I absolutely hate with a passion breakdowns. I do love driving (the exception being getting used to driving with these bloody Europeans who are all on the wrong side atm) - and, I love driving nice things - but, I have never ever liked the sheer and utter break in the boredom of life by breaking down - or funny noises, or smells or god knows what to interrupt my enjoyment of the purity of it. Also - I'd be very happy to have what you call a 'daily' as something special - not that I use anything as a 'daily' now - except feet or bicycle. But, for the purpose of 'daily' in this discussion - well, it would be interesting to see if I had the garage I would like - what I took as my go to machine to be honest - for a 'pop to the shop' - if I were to throw legality and caution to the winds and not use feet or bicycle - I would like a scooter ------- just sitting there - ready to go (electric would be fine) -- I mean a motor scooter - just get on it - and go ---------- in summer - just in a shirt and shorts - nothing else pull up at the door of the shop - hop off - walk in - get what I want - go out - hop on - go home to me - that's freedom and fun of course - unless in Asia - it's not possible and, in winter - forget that idea - jump into the the heated seats and climate control ---------- whatever is in the garage pointing the right way

Haha! I reckon you wouldn’t mind a breakdown Pinto, irrespective of what you say, you seem like the type who’d embrace being in the middle of nowhere with nothing to do but battle your thoughts, just be. I’ll never be on board with the scooter or bicycle love affair, I get it but I like mass to protect me (and my kids) from the unexpected ass-ender drunken geese, not interested in being a statistic on ACA. Appreciate your detail, if I had the balls, I’d probably do what you described.
