Rhoades Car problems

I don't know what the quality of a Rhoades Car was like when David Rhoades was alive, but the quality of a Rhoades Car is quite low now.

Thanks. I plan on waking up all threads that reference Rhoades Cars regardless of how old they are. The least I can do is alert people that may be thinking about buying a Rhoades Car as to their poor...

Rhoades Cars are Junk

I bought a 4-seater modified Rhoades Car to use for a Green business I was starting. I thought (for the money I was paying - $7500) that I was getting a high-quality quadricycle. Boy was I wrong.

I tried to be dispassionate and objective in my original posting, but quite honestly the Rhoades Car is simply a pile of junk. If you're still considering buying a Rhoades Car after reading this...

I recently purchased a new, modified Rhoades Car 4-seater. Unfortunately, my experience has not been a good one.
