I love my E bike, and am definitely getting one of these in the next year or so.

$8,000 for a vehicle that replaces 99% of my car needs, and doesn't have insurance, fuel, or much maintenance? Yes, please.

E-bikes are awesome but to go to Costco? Are you gonna pull a little e-trailer too? Ridiculous.

Yes, I'm going to absolutely use an expensive e-bike on roads with no bike lanes and heavy traffic, to try and save a couple dollars at Costco. Great idea.
