Last week I got about 10 inches of snow. Today there is already about 8 inches of snow, and will probably get a couple more. I haven't been able to ride my trikes lately. I am now thinkin' I should have got me one of these. Roy

We had something similar while in the military. It was made by Chrysler and called the 'Snow Bunny' or 'Snow Runner' it was used by our snipers..had a 1 qt tank and went about 25mph.

It has a 43cc engine and cost about $700. It also comes with a wheel conversion kit.
I think it would be a blast to ride.

Hey hank, I like that yellow one. It's got that true step through scooter style. The blue one looks like a modified motocross bike.
Kat, I live in northeast Independence. I don't really mind snow I just hate the shoveling part.

hahaah been riding my 125 chinese scooter in the snow all winter, I put my feet near the ground and ride at like 5 mph....I have done so in crazy blizzards... its sort of fun, except it took me an hour and a half to travel 10 miles....

Took me 4 hours to go 10 miles from work to home. Of course, 2.5 of that was spent shovelling out my car.... Now I'm really skittish about driving on snow 'cause my wagon's back bumper is shattered.
SAY--anyone with any car-contacts, see if you can find an intact rear bumper for a '92 Taurus wagon. Seafoam green would be most ideal, but if not I know a guy who can paint it. My mechanics are coming up gooseeggs right now, I'm already stressed out driving one day with this, and I do NOT!! want to spend $2000 for a new one!
>'Kat, hating the snow!
