Apologies to Ben Afleck...this is a Batmobile! You've seen them around town, now here's a chance to see one in action in the state where it's manufactured. Straight out of Spirit Lake, IA, the Polaris Slingshot is a three-wheeled fury ride. It features road-hugging handling, responsive quickness and the reaction on the street is pure bliss. People want to see it, touch it and drive it. Luckily, Danielle and I were able to do all three! Right after we shot this video, people started coming over from the bus depot to have a closer look.

As we approach the 6th season of KRNA Bike Nights at McGrath Powersports, I'm sure I'll have another chance to rumble down the road on a Slingshot as part of the Turbo Tour. That's my favorite part of this job. Every week, I walk into Powersports and pick out a new ride. The Slingshot is the one that people want to drive. I may ask for an extended session onboard this beast.

I was amazed that these are priced in the mid-$20s. I would have guessed $40K. Technically this reverse trike is a motorcycle, so make sure your drivers license has that "L" endorsement. Here's more on the specs of the buzz bin ride of the century.
