I thought that looked unstable.

Having been passenger in one around the winding lanes of Wales... Damn Right
they're unstable!
If building a 3-wheeler, put the single wheel *at the back*, or it'll lift
the inside rear if you touch the brakes in a bend, famous for it...
Every time I see one of those I start totting up the manufacturing cost
of a differential vs. two undriven wheels in front, and I wonder _why_
they went and made the damn things that way. I suppose they were
stressing rear seat capacity over anything resembling handling, but still...
I thought it was a hilarious sendup, even if I've never seen one in
person, much less ridden in it.
