For them to survive in middle America (flyover country) where people need
their vehicles for work rather than just transportation to and from, they
will have to build trucks. We use our trucks out here in the hinterlands.
You can't haul two round bales out to the herd with a Fiat 500 or even a
Fiat Dino. You can't pick up ten 100lb bags of dairy mix at the elevator
with a Fiat either. I predict they will have next to zero market except in
urban areas.
