Exclamation WTF is this world coming too

Was looking in the August issue of Dirt Rider and came upon this ad

WTF is this world coming to. Uhaul went to all gas engines because people didn't like the smell or sound of diesel fuel. Now this.

hmm - does that chain look to anybody else like a bicycle chain? looks pretty flimsy which would indicate a lack of power.

If someone would make an electric version of my bike that is just as fast or faster, I'd have one in a minute. It's just used for commuting 90% of the time anyway. I think it'd be fun as long as it holds a charge long enough for me to run multiple errands.

Actually I saw those a couple of years ago, they look pretty cool, the advertisement was that you could lift them over a fence and ride on. But then again I think you gotta weigh like 130 lbs to ride them. And that takes me out of the equation.
