Title: New Bushtec SS Model
Post by: Chains on February 18, 2017, 02:32:53 PM: Bushtec is making a SS model with fat tires and A arms to go with the Polaris Slingshot car. Notice 5 lug.

That's a little strange and maybe "over the top" for me. No pun intended.
Does this mean Bushtec is doing well under its new ownership?

I don't know about that weird shark fin up top, Jim.

I thought that made it an F1 trailer. Or is it the Indy cars now that have that Klingon cranial ridge on top?

Or one/some of the owners bought a Slingshot and thought the company might as well make something for him (then offer the product publicly since they already made one).

And, there's this variation with a rear fender add-on for the Slingshot:

Man, there is just nothing about those things that isn't ugly; or at least funny looking (and not in a good way).

It's a three-wheeled car... not a motorcycle by any stretch of the imagination. It's only a poorly written definition of motorcycles by DMVs that allows it to slip in under the radar.

i mean, for God's sake, it has a steering wheel and bucket seats!

Don't forget the engine is a car engine.
