A three wheeled commuter's dream

A very nice guy named Dave built about 700 Freeways in Burnsville, Minnesota, around 1980. It was partly a response to the gas crisis at the time. Capable of about 100 mpg and 65 mph, it was a very practical commuter design. A one-cylinder lawn tractor motor pushed this fiberglass-bodied, steel-framed "three." Later there were also a few electric models made. Unfortunately for H-M-Vehicles, the gas crisis ended, and the company did not survive.

As we are growing a consciousness about the effects our activities have on the environment, and with a new fuel crisis in full bloom, this three wheeled toy is turning more and more interested heads.
