There is one good reason why my Westy is a daily driver. Granted I only
come to my office twice a week, it is a 70 mile roundtrip which requires
me to get up at 4:30AM. The drive is not bad as it is 99% Highway, however
as the day progresses that early rise starts slowing you down, So I skip
lunch and later on the day skip to the parking lot, hop on my westy and
it's NAP TIME!! I come back to work energized, coherent and less cranky.

My Westy encourages overall well being and it's endorsed by the NIH and
Harvard Medical School. How is that for a NAP Mobile.
