My brother in law spotted this where we are staying.

Top one is considered a motorcycle in most states, kinda like a Polaris slingshot. Its really expensive for what it is and in any review the only thing that people like is the cool factor of its looks. In shoot outs the Slingshot and Can-ams win in just about every other category.

Still a really ufcking cool looking ride and definitely a head turner

Well I ufcked some shiat up on my trip over the weekend. Out in the middle of nowhere on a hill in the rain with water flowing down the trail in 1 second I destroyed a tire, pealed the rim back, broke inner and out ears on axles and the ujoint, bent the track bar which went through the oil filter. With a bunch of help from the people I was with and a complete stranger that came back out with oil and a filter we were able to put it back together and finish our trip on our own power. Pics will come late this week.

Who in the hell did you piss off for this to happen? What did you hit on the trail?

There was a rock in the bank on the right, I gave it all the squirrels that the old girl had to make it up the hill while pulling the trailer. I tried to stay left but bounced off another rock that put me into the bank. And then all the squirrels scattered and there I sat.

That first one is a hand built Morgan, and has been being built since World War 1. There is no comparing that to modern tricycles. That comparison is just silly. You don't buy a Morgan anything for it's unparalleled performance, you buy it because it's still built buy hand. Literally hand formed body work using the same tools and wooden forms that have been being used for nearly a century one at a time buy true craftsmen. It's a work of Art as much as a vehicle.

You jerks. I miss having a dog but after losing my Rot mix when she was 14 really don't want to go through that again. These post making me second guess that

I get that man. We have four cats and a dog (plus a 4yo. Yeah, we're insane). I just want them to have the best life they can while they're on this earth, and I couldn't think of not having animals around. Honestly, I like them better than people.

I get that, however when you buy a vehicle that literally does nothing well but look cool and its cost twice as much as any competitor, thats a problem.

Another thing that started after my sudden stop that i'm not sure about is an electrical issue. When the truck is running it is fine. Now about 50% of the time when I shut it off the electrical system shuts down completely and nothing powers back up with the key. dash stays dead and nothing clicks, interior lights wont work, and the stock red alarm blinking light isnt on. I can turn the key to the on position and jump the starter and it will start up and everything is good again once it is running. Any ideas of where to start?

You completely missed the point.

That Morgan has no competitors, absolutely none..... it's a one of a kind vehicle. More importantly, they aren't even trying. Hell, Morgan's history alone is worth more.

When Can-Am makes anything at all by hand, one at a time, completely customized to each individual customers choices, you let me know. Then we'll have a conversation about price.

Until then.... Morgan FTW!
