    Disaster On Three Wheels. Oh, My....

    It's about the smell of tires. If I could get the eye-watering nitro-methane smell in there also. Pure gearhead Heaven.

    The strip in the middle makes for easier burnouts. I'm on my fourth rear tire.;)

    Another 3 Wheeler

    It doesn't have a roof and AC so most of the guys here won't like it.

    Polaris Slingshot

    I have a history of driving Vehicles that don't make sense. I'm Watching this thread with some amusement. I'm not on this site to troll, I'll buy an Elio if they ever come out. I've sat in one. It would make a great little commuter car. But when I feel like acting like a idiot I can set a tire...

    Continental Kit For The Elio

    When was the last time you had a flat? Tires are made a hell of a lot better than 20, 30 or 50 years ago. My Slingshot doesn't have a spare and I haven't lost a moments sleep over it.

    Where Will An Elio Take You?

    Work and back on less than sunny days. I still have an old Honda for sunny days where I'm only hauling my carcass around.

    Do I Need A Second Car?

    Do I need a second car? Hell I don't need three Broncos, Two Pickups, an Old Mercedes two Bikes or the ultimate midlife crisis mobile Polaris Slingshot. I am a Motorhead I like cars.

    Electric Drive?

    No they don't charge, its an incentive program our owner is pushing, and they have reward programs for people who use public transportation or drive vehicles that get in excess of 40 mph. My Slingshot does not qualify but my old Honda Shadow does.

    Electric Drive?

    My work placed six chargers in our lot for employees to charge their vehicles. This isn't a large company on 300 employees. If they offer an electric option I would be all over it. I know the cost would be increased but I want this for a commuter car.

    Polaris Slingshot

    I own a Slingshot. got it about a year ago. Yes they have issues. But it's fun as hell. Comparing the Elio and the slingshot is foolish they aren't the same other than the wheel count. I'm looking at buying an Elio for commuting. I sat in one at SEMA a few weeks ago I'm a large guy and I fit...

    Slingshot Recall

    Polaris didn't wait until the feds stepped in as soon as a problem was realized they took action. I received a call from the dealer within 30 min of the report coming out on 1-16-15. They didn't wait for someone to get hurt. They stepped up and took steps to resolve the problems. When the Elio...
