     Sometimes.

     However, often I need something more than a trike with a bed  
behind it, including the ability to go on the interstates which cross  
near me.  So the S-10 sounds perfect to me, especially if it's four- 
wheel-drive, which can be close to a necessity during certain seasons  
around here.

     Yes, I can wait some chores to avoid those seasons.  Not saying  
that a pedal-assist vehicle won't ever be part of the mix.  But I'd  
like more versatility, if I can get it.
