    Found out recently three-wheelers of any kind are not allowed in NLEX.

    Yes, I think so.

    This 3-wheeler should replace all tricycles all over the country...

    I think the ban is a continuation of the restriction on under-400cc vehicles... I think if you can prove that your three-wheeler has a larger engine, it can be allowed, but I'm not sure.

    They allow micro-Jeeps (Super-Carry based ultra-short wheelbase without roof) on the SLEX... provided you wear a helmet.

    I wonder why the "shark fin" on the roof of the ones in The Fort area... High winds might push them over.

    Is that helmet requirement is so the authorities can identify your remains if and when those micro-jeeps flip over (crushing you under the vehicle) on the highway?

    A definite improvement over existing tricycles. But I think that the Tsikot design team can design a better tricycle. Even the e-jeepney can be improved.

    Sorry. I don't mean to knock EV Solutions or PHUV, Inc. They did a good job in creating these vehicles. It's just that there is always room for improvement.

    What are these micro-Jeeps? What do they look like? Any pictures?

    Can Tsikot TV make a video of unusual vehicles like the micro-Jeep, electric tricycle and the e-jeepney?

    *niky,

    I recently saw a new sign by the NLEX that says no three wheeler allowed. But I do hope the ban is meant for under 400cc vehicles.

    *GH,

    Your helmet joke cracks me up. I don't know if they have changed the rules in Utah, but when I last checked, occupants were required to wear helmets when in three wheelers.

    Those micro-jeeps are min-owner types. Based on the suzuki supercarry ladder frame, they're like 1/2 scale owner types.. even the seats are smaller. There's no question about legality of engine size... the Suzuki motor is already 1000 cc... and with the lighter weight of the owner-type body, they're pretty nippy. Been looking at purchasing one, but the shop that does it locally closed down. Haven't found another yet.

    not really a 3-wheeler but I call it a 3N1
    since it is a variant of the tricycle... but technically - a horse drawn chariot but more of a motorbike centric carriage - technically speaking.

    Now you know where those electric trikes in Global City - gets their influence.

    I hope to see the day when the so-called 'Pinoy Design' to be an UNINFLUENCED style.

    An influenced design is a manifestation of our bonded culture.

    If we cant even be free from these influences - subtle or obvious... we can never be free.... hypothetically speaking.

    Well, Im hoping that time would come. Maybe, existing local manufacturer-assemblers like MCX and Blaze can slowly move away at simply buying generic parts from China and start manufacturing some in-house parts.Although, MCX is doing it right now through their China unit.

    Notice the smoke emissions at the right hand of the screen? One guess where that is coming from.
