What? I am sure that cant be true. Meeting safety regulations doesnt mean in needs to be unnecessarily heavy. I feel like cars have become too luxurious. If they didnt have ac or radio, and everything mechanical, I bet the weight could be cut a lot. Even with all the safety features needed today. I havent heard of eric peters, but I do know of chris harris lol

I'm extremely ignorant of almost anything related to cars, but I've heard him interviewed a few times. That's his claim, at least. He also thinks there would be a substantial market for those simple cars, if they could be sold.

I think there would be, too. I remember years back a family friend bought a yaris. It was so stripped down, but elegant. Everything was that cheap plastic stuff, though.

I really like this episode from Chris Harris. Its many years old but the old him had a bit more energy than he does now. He has also kept this car all these years, even though he trades and sells his other ones.
