    EBAY!

    Atleast thats where I got my 350X or your local cycle trader. As far as it being good I dont know Ive heard good things about them. I guess it just depends on what you want it for also Your size(weight+height). I was looking into getting one but I went with the 350x instead Im 6'2 215. If your a smaller person then it should do just fine it would probably be fine for a larger rider also, I dont know myself. I have priced them anywhere between $500 (decent trike) - $800 (really nice) I would look somewhere in that range I paid $1300 for my 350X. I think I might have paid a little too much but it was close to where I live and I didnt have to travel to pick it up. Im sure other that have a 200X can help you out a little more.

    A nice 200X is worth more than $500. A totally ed running 200X might be $500 but a decent one is worth $800. A really clean 200X is easily worth a grand. A 350X varies from 1200 to 1600. At least these are the prices in Southern California.

    Lemme guess. You had a Contour? I agree, those are junk. My buddy had one and it was at the dealer more than it was in his driveway.

    P.S. Chevys break down too. I got rid of a Cavalier about 6 months ago. That thing was CONSTANTLY needing repairs. And I don't even want to talk about my '94 Grand Am with the Quad Junk motor....Grrrrrrrr........... Every car manufacturer has their good and bad models though.

    Not to start a discussion about Ford vs Chevy on a 3 wheeler website but I have owned 2 Ford Rangers and now for the last 4 years I have had a 2000 F150 supercab. That truck has not had one problem, not even a rattle. Look at consumer reports. Ford has always beat GM on quality results over the last 5 years. My friend and my father are die hard Chevy and they have finally given up becasue of all the problems they had - fuel pumps , ignition systems and alternators going out on trucks with less than 40K. You name it. I admit Chevy's are more powerful but man....way to many headaches.
