Saw the title and thought it was going to be all about lovingly restored older women preying on young boy toys. Guess I'll have to head to Scottsdale for that.

While I like the idea of either of these (and aces to Toyota for much better style both in motion & at rest), i still have the same question I had when the Segway first came out -- how exactly is this a quantum improvement for most users over a bicycle, or a small electric/gas scooter?

If this is the future, no thanks...

Does the Toyota version remind anyone of the hover chairs in Wall-E and create visions of an obese future?

Hmmm.  Motorized vehicle.  It will need a horn, headlights, tail light, brake light and signals.  That should help the cruising range a lot.  Glad to know GM is on the right track

I didn't add those since it is a 2 wheeled vehicle, but then again, you can't be sure.  Just imagine if it has to pass NHTSA crash standards.

Did you watch the video? They go into why those aren't required for this vehicle...
