Harley Davidson, having toyed with the idea of a 3 wheeler since 2006 and had filed numerous patents for such concepts, will be showing this Trikester or Carver (no official name yet, but that's how such vehicles were dubbed) in an upcoming event in Germany. We've always wondered what category should these bikes belong to, cars or motorcycles? As we know even the cheapest China made tin cans that demolished itself in crash tests are safer than the most technologically advance, most expensive motorcycles, hence when motorcycle niche markets expands to 3 wheelers or 4 wheelers, and to have canopies or a lightweight roof above them, it would be a task for lawmakers to decide how to enforce safety standards into these vehicles. Nonetheless, these new stuffs are cool aplenty.
Here's the deal guys, we started off as an automotive industry magazine that talks about anything remotely associated with cars. The subprime crisis, the oil spill off the Gulf of Mexico, the Great Tohoku Earthquake are all world issues affecting the automotive industry.
Not only the face of what's happening on a global scale, we delve deep into the auto-journalism ethics, criticizing the increasingly mundane automotive advertising industry, we explained how America's dwindling confidence and rising sense of inferiority complex gave rise and ultimately fueled the media in propagating hatred towards Toyota.
In short, we're serious towards the automotive industry, our scope and depth is what makes us who we are, and we believe there are a lot more aspects towards which we can continue explore with the magazine when it comes to all things automotive. From the wider perspectives covering technological, sociological or even geopolitical, to inner workings of the trends and traits of design and advertising of cars, towards the human aspects that shapes the very cars we drive day in and out.
And this, is the reason why we decide to give the magazine a bump, a revamp into Wheels Weekly: Live Life Drive. Before that comes though, we will be launching an inaugural celebration issue where we chronicle the best of Wheels Weekly. We can't wait, we hope you too.
