Feel the pulse of Arlington’s roads at the wheel of a Polaris Slingshot from Big Al's. Discover a fresh way to experience North Texas with style, speed, and control.
Arlington, Texas, is more than just a midpoint between Dallas and Fort Worth—it’s a gateway to bold open-road thrills, especially when behind the wheel of a Polaris Slingshot. Big Al's Slingshots offers a fleet of these striking three-wheeled roadsters, turning ordinary city streets and nearby highways into a playground for adrenaline seekers and design aficionados alike.
Big Al’s collection features models from recent years, including the 2021 Polaris Slingshot SLR Limited Neon Fade and the sleek 2022 Moonlight Metallic White SL. Each Slingshot combines the raw power of a motorcycle with the stability and comfort of a sports car, making for a driving experience that’s both visceral and accessible. These vehicles shine against Arlington’s mix of urban landscapes and sprawling Texas terrain, giving riders a chance to feel connected to the road like never before.
The city itself sits on the edge of the Blackland Prairies, an area characterized by flatlands and pockets of native grasslands, providing a unique contrast for drivers as they shift gears from downtown arterials to open highways. Arlington’s proximity to landmarks like Lake Arlington adds scenic appeal for Slingshot tours, where winding back roads reveal the local charm and Texas sky horizons.
What sets Big Al's apart is not just the variety of color options—ranging from the electric Liquid Lime to deep Midnight Blue—but also their dedication to safety and customer support. Whether you’re a first-time driver or a seasoned rider, Big Al’s team ensures you’re comfortable handling these machines before you hit the gas.
For those looking to break from traditional outdoor recreation and inject heightened freedom and speed into their adventure, Big Al’s Slingshots provides an unforgettable gateway into Texas motoring culture.
