- Not necessarily you too. You may not mind not having room to carry sleeping
- bag, luggage, large Zabar's bag full of odds and ends, and a steadily growing
- assortment of plastic bags full of things like shoes from a Bass factory
- outlet in Massachusetts and exotic food from somewhere in Providence. And
- you may not be into driving a car at its maximum possible speed on interstates.
- And your skin is probably not cancerous. And you may be able to see in the
- dark. And you may not be worried about whether a half-beagle might suddenly
- decide to jump through the roof. Etc. As I said, they really are cute cars.
