Welcome to the board, as Thirdwheel said there are a lot of trikes to choose from, so just shop around and find what U like... Don't be in a hurry U will find it or if U are handy U can build it.. We have several people on here who have either built their own or in the process of building one now..
Good luck which ever way U go....

Hello magusjinx, and a big TrikeTalk welcome!
You will have just as much fun on a trike, I assure you. (And I love that you called ThirdWheel a kid! He hasn't been a kid in years....LOL, but you undoubtedly made him feel good anyway

.)

Me either ... Gonna get all my ducks in a row first ... Got most figured out except the front end because of the weight considerations ... Then there is the insurance since it is not a factory vehicle and the frame has to be homemade ...Oh well ...
