| 199 is for sale again. Are these things just harder to drive than people expect? |

The instability of a G.C.R.V. is better than a three wheeled vehicle if you have ever watched any British parodies like the series "Bean". Then again, some novel modern three wheeled vehicles are engineered for better cornering than the Pulse (but you don't see those around). On a Straight Away, The Pulse is comfortable for cruising. On curves, it depends on the severity. Worse with complete corners if attempting to drive it like a sports car.
Now, if you are actually referring to annoying commutors around you they can make driving hazzardous... I can agree that the Pulse makes bad drivers even worse. They so annoy me too. |

I am the current owner of #199. Driving a Pulse is pretty much identical to driving a normal 4-wheeled vehicle. I do think my motorcycle experience was helpful when it came to linear shifting. Other drivers are the hazzard as they try to get close for a better look......everyone seem to have those camera phones now.
I am selling because I just want to get something else. I get a hobbie car about once a year, have some fun with it, then get something else. I am currently looking for something that I can spend more time working on. #199 doesn't really need anything done to it.

My friend Jerry just showed me his new bike.
It is #199.
I've never seen one in person before. I can't wait to ride in it.
He is so gassed about owning it. |
