Wherein we learn of Howard's mind AJC: Segway hits bump in its progress
The heralded Segway has claimed its first Atlanta victim. A member of the Central Atlanta Progress Ambassador Force toppled from one of the personal scooters on Cone Street near Luckie Street about 8:40 p.m. Thursday. via Ken Layne I love this bit from the Ford Excursion website: "EPA estimated MPG: N/A". The estimated MPG is not applicable because it's considered a truck and so doesn't fall under the regulations for passenger cars. From no less august a source as truckworld.com comes this paean: Estimated fuel economy on Excursion ranges from 10 to 18 miles per gallon, competitive with other vehicles in its class. And which class is this?
