One more thought.... I see some people riding cargo bikes for their utility. One guy in particular is pretty much car-free (has a pickup truck he hasn't used in a while that he's trying to sell), and uses his bike for transport, including moving big stuff (furniture and the like). There are several people I know who seem to like that heavy duty vibe of the cargo bike, but don't necessarily want or need the bike to carry stuff, so they go for the Pugsly or other fat-tire bike instead.
