>What's it like driving around Manhattan
A bit bumpy, that's for sure. Rarely over 30 mph yet, averaging 15-20 maybe.
The cab drivers have been very good, curious, respectful and interested in the details. I think they"get it". Little kids "get it". City bus drivers don't always "get it". Motorcycle riders/construction workers for the most part "get it". DHL drivers, florist delivery drivers "get it". People seem to think equally in terms of parking and gas mileage advantages.
Full size commercial vans, marked and anonymous, don't get it nearly so often. Been cut off rather severely twice so far.
For a supposedly sophisticated city, there are an amazingly large number of folks who are out of the loop and can't identify the car, but they can for the most part, identify with it.
Hoping this weekend to get "off the island" for the first time.
