What its like to own/drive a Slingshot!

I had some free time today and decided to shoot some footage (iPhone Xs Max) while I washed it, and a few (crappy) driving shots and talk about what its like to own the Slingshot. I decided against talking while driving, as it would've had way too much wind noise, so I just dubbed it over in my editing program through my computer.
I bought the Slingshot new in mid-August of 2018, it was a 2019 model, not even at the dealer yet. It was delivered straight from Polaris, and at the time, the white was a rare color, and I liked it over the black.
Its a PAIN to keep this thing clean!
Ill upload a new video this week going over all the "mods" i've done to mine, since the "S" model is the base model, and doesn't come with much at all.

You did VERY well at explaining and demonstrating this. I learned some things as well. I'm looking to buy one soon and came across your video, which will really help in my shopping.

I'm about to get one, but seems like they could try to do better on a couple of things. Those huge head screws around the radio could definitely be smaller and black, to match.

I have a 2021R and love it. It is a attention getter. It fills good when people give you thumbs up

I bought mine new in 2017 SLR. I rode mine in the rain for 4 hours on my way to Maggie Valley N.C.that was for a Slingshot rally. that was a lot of fun about 600 other Slingshots from all over the lower 48 and at least one from Canada. A 15 minute fill up most of the time it ended up being 35 to 45 minutes.

Have you ever ridden or owned a motorcycle? How do you compare this to owning a motorcycle, as the best toy you've ever owned. I'm deciding on grabbing one, but then the interior just looks so cheap, looking at the older models. I'm thinking yolo, but checking on other owners on KZfaq first and their opinions on it. If I get this, it will be my daily, as did my motorcycle when I owned one. Live in Cali. Some rain when it wants to rain, owned a bike before so don't mind.

Insurance is insane though. You would think with 3 wheels Insurance companies would love the extra stability. I pay about a grand a year for my 2019 S and I'm 55 and a driving record clean enough for the post office. My Triumph Rocket 3 was much less than half for insurance even though it could kill me a lot faster.

How do you know about the 2020 Slingshot being an automatic? Do you know when it’ll be announced? Usually they get released around August and so far no word on it!

Not to bad, we put the slingshade roof on ours, so very little wind.
