     "Deathmobile"? Gotta love US media. NOT. And it's always
     fun to slam Transporters. Even if they do hold their resale
     value a hell of a lot better than Detroit crap, and keep
     going and going year after year. It's like that Elvis
     Costello song "What's So Funny About Peace, Love and
     Understanding?" -- what's so funny about a sensible,
     human-scaled vehicle that's totally practical and a hoot
     to drive? When I'm getting tailgated by some red Japanese
     sports car, I'm wondering how insecure the driver is...
