i've had my gen 1 for about a month a half now...... i love it, but i've been watching u tube vids. of the 2nd gen, and i really like them..... i live in upstate ny, an i have yet to see a 2nd gen on the road..... i haven't even seen a gen 1 on the road. I'v seen 2, but they were parked..... might get a 2nd gen. a few years down the road, but right now i'm gonna enjoy my gen 1.
