Wonder if those wheels work like that bike with a Viper engine in it.

it's a new ride for "piney" from Sons of Anarchy. You can see his oxygen tank strapped to the console. (That's assuming the front end is toward the right!)

Oh sure, it would be easy to call it fugly and just turn away but far better to at least TRY to overturn it or set it on fire first.

Looks like it, Dog. And that bike would be the Dodge Tomahak

It's sort of a Piaggio MP3, but with a 4th wheel, isn't it?!


Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

My first impression was that there were a bunch of parts on the floor and the engineers all stood there wondering what they could come up with... like a child with a pile of legos. Who is their target market for this thing... if it ever goes to production?

It's rather like the '46 Kaiser and '47 Studebaker, you can't tell without looking very close which way it's supposed to go.

I think they tossed the bits in a bag and shook it several times to see what would come out.
