Does this mean you’re chaseonthreewheels now?
-
I have zero desire to ever drive one of these, and yet; this is one of the best first rides for a bit. Not sure why I feel like that. You seem so relaxed and chill. Good Vid dude.
-
Fun fact, these require a motorcycle license in exactly 1 state to drive, Massachusetts.
-
OC: Me buying a 3 wheel vehicle is a clear sign to call any government agency as I've definitely been body snatched by aliens 👾. So many better ways to spend 31k IMO.
-
Cool change of pace! And on topic a good bit too. They sell a ton of these in our area Chase as you know. Georgia boys!
-
You should do first rides of the the latest Vanderhalls and Can-Am Ryker/Spyders!
-
Good stuff, man. You, Doodle, and Bikes & Beards, all inspired me to convert my channel over to a motovlog recently. Love seeing other local Atlanta creators making awesome content! We just took rental Slingshots onto the Tail of the Dragon. It was awesome. Love your content. Keep it up!

This thing with a VW Golf R powerplant would rock. They are definitely over priced for what this one has.
-
I can not fathom why anybody would spend their money on this
-
I test drove one of these with a manual trans . Underpowered is an understatement. Considering the price , youre better off getting something else .
-
Yeah but most people don't use helmets I never wore one and so far never been pull over
-
“That brake is QUESTIONABLE” hhhhhhh LMAO
-
100% dead on!! We rented one on the 4th last week up in Blue Ridge, GA. The auto trans just sucks and sounds like you're in a side by side off road uv. The paddle shifters were way better, but I'd like to try a manual. We rode the Cherohala Skyway, hit the Dragon, and then we rode back to Blue Ridge. The worst thing was the heat, no cool seats. We rode the Dragon east to west and we baked on the ride back as there wasn't any decent airflow for your lower body. As far as the price, you're getting close to a Mutistrada Pikes Peak!!! It was fun and my wife loved it, but it's a hard pass for me!! OC

This thing shouldn't be available with an automatic trans. The first few years they were out, they were manual trans only.... not a "gated shifter," but at least a stick shift.
-
Slingshot is literally the middle of the line up.
-
OC: Go with the Spyder all day every day. My wife absolutely loves hers.
-
i swear iv only seen older men on this things...

skip to 04:50 for the actual video start

Why would anyone want to buy this?
