    Nice review. I've owned a slingshot since 2016 and never knew that you can hold the traction control button down for five seconds and put it in beast mode. I always just turned off the traction control and thought that was all there was to it. Thank you for showing me this trick and now I can't wait for warmer weather!! Hahahah

      @@vonksummer9099 I coowned one--no problems the older ones like 2019 or older have a 2.4 GM engine and 5 speed and are extremely reliable. Our oil chnges were also done at chevy. The new ones have a polaris engine and reliability is not proven--but I am sure they are reliable.Also the engine and tranny are not pulling a lot of weight about 1/2 to 1/3 of a car--so not as much strain on the components--unlike a muscle car--people like to go fast and smoothe as opposed to doing burnouts.The whole thing is also waterproof and easy to clean.I still would only rent to responsible people--it is on three wheels and i do not push mine near its limit--feels solid--but not risking a spinout with 3 wheels--and there is no need to--it can corner faster then most cars anyway cause of the low center of gravity--rent one yourself first and see.I am also a high end driver and do not f$ck around in (that is why i coown one--freind who is an athlete bought it--but can not have risky vehicles and no vehicles that require a helmet so he put it in my name and it is stored in the mountains--I have my own tire I put on when i drive it)vehicles--yeah if the HWY is open and clear i have no problem doing triple digit speeds--but I drive defensively while in traffic--you are way safer then a bike--and are in kind of a roll cage--but proabably would not want to be in a wreck.need helmets in some states.Insurance was cheap for me cause my record is spotless--do not know what it would entail if you rent it out.I always call my insurance company a day before I get it for weekend and get supplemental insurance on it when i drive--it is attached under a storafe insurance for me until I drive it and addded less then 100 dollars for a whole year.

    This has been my daily driver for many months now in Victoria on Vancouver Island. Before I owned a car I put almost 140,000 miles on bikes, they were all I ever owned. This thing is so much fun. I remember riding in 7 solid hours of rain on my bike from Edmonton until arriving at my destination in Northern British Columbia (Ft St John) with a waterlogged pigskin jacket that weighed probably 20 lbs by the time I got there! Haven’t got the endurance for the heavy-rain rides anymore but I can throw on a full face helmet and do it all day long in this thing.

    Thing with these typed of vehicles is that people buy one, ride it a bit and have fun. But then the novelty wears off and it gets ridden less and less and just takes up space in the garage. Then it gets sold.

    • @Skierxman
      @Skierxman 7 лет назад +5

      haha..kind of yeah. Seriously, though. This is a fun ride but the truth is its kind of like purchasing a boat. You have a lot of fun for a season or too then you play with it less and less and it just takes up space. Then you try to sell it. Not everyone sells of course it but given the amount of space it takes up, the fact that you cant ride it year around and you are making payments on the vehicle like the boat, you see a lot of used on the market.

    • @shumbane

      This theory applies to anything you buy for entertainment. No fun lasts forever. After a season or two we will always be ready for something new. If you can't sell it then trade it!!

    The Chevy Cruze comes with a 1.4 turbo or a 1.8 NA engine. This is the same 2.4L engine as some of the Cobalts. In actuality, I believe this engine and transmission are the same thing as a Pontiac Solstice or Saturn Ion.

    FYI - In some states like here in NJ a law was passed in 2016 (I think) so it's now considered an "Auto Cycle" and because of that designation you don't need a motorcycle license /endorsement or a helmet to legally drive. Just google your state for the particular laws regarding these bad-ass 3 wheel vehicles.

      @@elewis6252 If driven reasonably and maintained as recommended by Polaris they are pretty darn reliable. I recently sold mine after only putting 1000 miles or so on it. The wind and road noise was absolutely brutal...your ass is about 6 inches off the ground and terrifying in traffic...and the idea of driving a triangle around just didn't work for me. The front wheel constantly stuck in the grooved/warn part of the lane and the rear wheel rides up on top of the crown. Flats and road and oil debris on the rear wheel are a huge problem. It sucked.

I can see the traction control will always be off as it should be.

My 07 Ford dually diesel is an automatic ONLY because one with a 6 speed just simply could not be found when I was looking to buy my truck. I even have a Volvo VNL430 with a 10 speed in it. Just a tip Mr. Gonzales, learn to shift. You'll have better control of the car/truck and it's a lot more fun to drive. I've been rowing gears since i was 14 years old. Try it, you'll like it.

    I'm 13 and trying to persuade my dad to buy me my first car/ motorcycle so we can keep it in the garage and he can drive me around. Would this be a good option for a first vehicle.

      I feel the same way. I thought it was pretty cool and actually thought about going out and having a look. However, then i heard him say "it has a Chevy 4 cylinder" out of some failing sub compact car that GM started building a few years back that didn't do very well. That said, I think I'll forget about blowing $18-$20 grand on a seasonal "car" that is more than likely going to cost me a fortune in repairs 10 seconds after the warranty expires. In closing........ cool idea but a lot of bad choices on the build. -Doc

    the engine needs to be in the back to keep the rear wheel from being to light. 25hp will break that rear wheel loose now. Hope they do a redesign on this thing soon. Hopefully it will look less like a 80s transformer after to boot.

      You can request a custom cover modification with high-rise wind deflectors. Basically turns it into a small car.
