Electrics used to be quite prevalent as city runabouts. That's what we need, not these supposed OTR replacement shitboxes. I'd buy a cheap little electric to drive around the city if it was priced in the 5-6k range.

Love that mercury rectifier, tho. Classic old-school.

The reason you can't buy a car for 5k are goveenment safety and emissions standards. In places where they don't give a fuck, you easily can

Yeah I know. Electrics won’t have emissions, tho. And all the extra crap car makers want to put in cars drives up the price

I just want a two seat cloth top with a bit of a trunk that maybe goes 50mph. Doesn’t even need a radio.

The closest thing you can get is a "motorcycle." "Motorcycles" which include 3 wheelers have lax safety and emissions regulations.
