I haven't gotten any negative comments unless you think "It looks like a sneaker" is offensive. Both who said it are good friends and they like it.

The nite I drove it home from the dealer (aug 2003) my first stop, was in a fast food line that caused lots of positive comments.

This morning found me in another fast food line and the 19 yo gal said, "iron...what?" "What does it say on the front?" So I had to explain it. Then she said. "...It's small." So I told her, "it was just fine for me, but women have said that." Hee hee. Then she quiclkly said, "But it's cool..."
