Homemade Trike with Lots of Acronyms
Supposedly, this ad comes from a wife selling her husband’s electric vehicle dream. There is mention of possible production, but it seems the company never got off the ground.

For better or worse, only 30-something were made. We just think it’s cool… In case you wondered,…

We’re sure our readers don’t get enough Nigerian bank scam emails, so we offer up this ad. The Tropica seems to have been another failed EV venture, this one built in Florida. This claims to be the only Tropica outside the US, so we’re not sure why the seller decided it needed to go on…
