I understand. I had to go for a road test after vacuuming the carpets.

I'm bumbed. Just prepared my M3W today for winter storage. Won't get to drive her again until next March. At least had a nice sunny day last drive today. Winter in Wisconsin is too long.

Y'all need to move on down here. When I get mine it's gonna be a year round daily. I'm even opting for the heated seats for those 3 weeks of winter we get down here.
That said, I think I'll have to buy some shares of sun screen cause their stock is gonna go up for sure.
But hey, you guys up near Chicago, did you deal with Northshore? Since I have family up in Illinois I was thinking about taking delivery there. Might be nice to do a little mini-meet. Granted this is still a couple years off what with build time and me actually throwing the money down on it.

Indeed, I bought through Northshore this summer. Norb is a straight shooter. If we all move down there, there would be no more dealer up here....

We get plenty of snow here in Maryland and there's no way I'd ever put Mo away for the season!

Ken, it's not the snow up here, it's the salt. Covers the streets from the first snow until the second spring rain.

Now they use some liquid bribe crap sprayed onto the surface just prior to an "event". It's gone as soon as the snow melts. You get quite a bit more white stuff anyway.

Northshore was also my dealer. Not fair Texas only has three weeks winter.
My joy of ownership includes driving my M3W as well as keeping it in good order. I cringe when I think of exposing every nook and cranny to the ravages of salt on Wisconsin roads in the winter time. I want it to look nice for awhile. This is my personality. Whose going to enjoy theirs more? Personal preference.
I don't understand the comment about Texas even if qualified by, lol.

Jeez Ken, so harsh! Don't blame me for Texas, I just live here. Plenty of fantastic routes to drive on, and lots of good food. Come on down sometime, I promise you won't hate all of it. I'll steer you clear of Dallas/Fort Worth ;-) Unless you're one of them skurred libruls!
One of the reasons I got out of Illinois was the cold. In becoming much more competent in vehicles since then, there's nothing that could get me to move back to any of the salt states.
But yeah, Sportster, JoeJoe and anyone else who's up that way, I'll start a thread when it gets closer to me getting the three wheeler, but I'd definitely love to meet up with yall.
