    LOL and this fat old lady probably would dump it over just getting on it. But it would be very cool to have for shopping in a mall or a large chain store. Way cool, what's next ? ya know ?

    When this is widely available, the price will go down, I think, but my original guesstimate was $10,000. for R&D. And I imagine there would be improvements, like a backrest, basket, larger wheel, etc. I am interested in what powers it; probably a battery of some kind. I could sure use this around the house and wonderful for sandwiching my quilts on the bed! Thanks, Honda! :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:

    Now this is something I would like. I have a problem walking distances, even in a store. Balance might be an issue, but if the load could be increased, a backpack would help me keep my balance. Now to work on MY LOAD!

    I'd love one but am so klutzy I'd probably fall over backwards - would be nice to take shopping - guess I'd try to attach a wagon on the bag for all my goodies, then at least I'd have something to fall back in to!! lol
