[Silly Little Cars] Silly_little_cars Digest, cushman van

[Bob Gallagher]

Here in Oregon (most states are similar) 3 wheelers are easy to register.  They are a motorcycle and only have to meet motorcycle requirements which the Cushman 3 wheelers do.

Four wheeled stuff is a different story.  With 4 wheels, it is a car.  Thus, it has to meet emission and crash testing requirements of a car.  If it is over 25 years old there is some leeway.

Some states also have different rules for 3 wheelers depending on if they are enclosed (top and doors) or not.

So....3 wheels easy, 4 wheels difficult.  Of course the primary factor in registering any unusual vehicle is which govt monkey assists you at the DMV.

  is it true that 4-wheelers aren't street legal?
