[Silly Little Cars] My new Cushman

[B-o-b Gallagher]

The same, only different.  The steering and pedals are centered (I wish they were off-set), has the roll bar, dump bed activated by a lever to the right of the driver (opposite side from the shifter).  I am looking for a pair of the pop-open rear windows, but they are pretty hard to come by.

  Holy crap, beautiful. My favorite feature is the sunroof.... I wonder why they tricked it out so much?

  I think I have the same model dumptruck, but mine's not in nearly as good condition.

  Does yours have the steering wheel and pedals moved to the left to accommodate a passenger? And does it have a roll bar? And is your dump bed activated by a stick lever to the left of the driver?

    I just picked up a new Cushman.  I've been driving a 1977 model so this one is a huge step up.  It's a 2001 with the Daihatsu engine and a manual transmission.  It has a sunroof, AM/FM/CD stereo, hydraulic dump bed, GPS (for those extended trips to the far side of town), "high speed" gearing, a roll cage and LED lighting.  It came from the city of Tacoma and only has 3500 miles on it. I sure don't know why more people don't buy an old Cushman, they are great around town transport.

    I'm attaching a picture....we'll see if it works or not.
