And what's up with the window net? It doesn't do anything to keep the mosquitos out....

What bugs me was that I had no way to transport my wife home since the thing didn't even come with a passenger seat.

However, I am happy that they at least offer a Tiptronic version (or something similar to it) now.

At least there is easy to access tow hooks, which is needed since they forgot to supply a spare tire or even that patch kit stuff.

also the radio is a bit weird cause all I hear is some guy shouting at me to give it gas and keep my foot down?
You know, mine has that same option & he keeps yelling that I'm driving like a certain part of the female anatomy. I've tried to turn it off but it always seem to be back on the next time I drive the car

Plus, they make it so easy to change a flat tire but don't even bother to include a spare. I mean, what's up w/that....

Must be the bad radio reception out at MSR.
