    What is a blog?  For us it is a short blurb that we write when the mood strikes us.  It can be first person, funny or informative. In short, a blog is whatever we want it to be. Published Sept. 14, 2009 at 3:42 p.m.

    What's the most interesting vehicle you've seen this month?

    My friend took his Shelby out for a spin around the neighborhood on a recent sunny day. My in-laws let me borrow their new Honda Ridgeline pickup truck. I thought that was pretty sweet.

    The most interesting vehicle I've come across, though, was the three-wheel scooter that you see in the accompanying photo. I saw it parked Downtown on Jefferson Street, but didn't get a chance to talk to the owner. (I'm sure it's quite the conversation piece).

    I did a little Web surfing and it sure looks like the MotoMojo Tri-Elite 150 that you see in the video below. It looks like it can go from 35 to 50 mph. Maybe it will fill the market for people who never picked up that Segway?

    I can't say I'm interested in buying one at present, but I'd like to know a little more.

    If you know anything about this ride -- like the top speed, price, local retailers, etc. -- feel free to use the Talkback feature.

    Best ride I have seen all year (I have seen this scooter and not impressed)- outside of Rascals bar this summer. It was a motorized COUCH! NOTHING beats that.

    Reina Int'l auto sells them. Or at least ones very similar. You can occasionally see them sitting out front on Capitol Dr. But their scooter repair shop around the corner has a few interesting scooters in their "showroom/storage" area.
