It wasn’t designed just to be an automobile at all. She was so extraordinarily stable my center of gravity was very very low and for the first vehicle that ever had the center of gravity forward of the midpoint of the wheel base. It did prove to be a very good vehicle and did have very high efficient I had eleven passengers I averaged over 22 miles to the gallon. Sometimes I got as much as 30 with eleven passengers - that is very, very high. The front steered cars with the kingpins can only steer up to 34 degrees angle. My rear rudder post I could turn so I could give you 90 degrees rudder if I wanted. This meant then that when I want to come in to a park there is space that is, say, six inches long than my Dymaxion car. I would simply bring my nose into the curb and then throw my rear wheel sideways and she went in flop like that.
