The 2023 Polaris Slingshot Lineup Invites Riders To Design The Ride Of Their Dreams
HipHopWired Featured Video The Polaris Slingshot is one of the most distinctive motorized vehicles on the market today, sparking curiosity and interest every time one zips through the streets. With the company rolling out its new 2023 lineup, Polaris Slingshot invites riders to dig deep into their artistic bags and design the ride of their dreams. First, I’d like to personally thank Polaris for having me and other members of the media and riding community out to test drive the Slingshot in November. As I told some of the Polaris team, I’ve wondered for years what the hoopla was all about as it relates to the Slingshot. On a reasonably warm day no matter the season, it is customary to see Slingshots zipping through the Washington Metropolitan area in droves. I’ll be frank here, I largely th...

HipHopWired Featured Video CLOSE Source: Johnny Nunez / Getty Chrisean Rock has the chill of a steaming bowl of soup, and she’s back in the trending topics roundup once again for more of her antics.

Chrisean Rock caught wind of the ...
