So I have been looking into The BEST possible way to ride my scoot all year, ALL WEATHER!, ALL THE TIME! As I would like it to be my ONLY vehicle. In my search I have turned up this: threerfun.webs.com/theautomoto.htmThey look pretty ODD at first, like an EGG and what not, BUT after you watch a video or two about it, I think the way it has a leaning cockpit, 2 wheels on the ground, all the time, with pozi. trac., 150cc, optional doors, it looks pretty nice for the price tag $3800... I am sure they will go down by a little when dealers start getting more of them, but right now, thats the cheapest I can find. WHAT DO YOU GUYS THINK ABOUT IT??? FEEDBACK VERY MUCH APPRECIATED   |

We have about a dozen of these on the island already. Someone was selling two of them on craigslist. I couldv'e had both for about $1,500.
Alreafy have my Rocketa and can't afford any more toys. Besides, I've no where to keep them. I live in an apartment.

We have a member, named Automotoguy by the way, who has one. He put 35,000 miles on his so far. He lives in Georgia where it's pretty warm most of the time. He has a video of riding in the rain too.

In my odd moments I have considered installing a windshield/canopy on my trike for winter snow and year round rain. There are existing mount points to use so it would be detachable. It would not be snazzy looking but then my ruckus style trike is not snazzy in the first place, -it is 'functional'...
Apparently the open sides do not matter a lot unless there is a strong crosswind to blow rain/snow in.
