It seems in their haste to get Cata rolling the Trike was overlooked. As of now you can buy a Trike if you are Horde. Problem is that you can buy it and then faction change. Since there is no Alliance equivalent to convert to, you get to keep the Trike on your Alliance character. I saw a human warrior rolling around in Stormwind a few minutes ago on one.

In 2004, a crack development team was sent to prison by a mmo court for a crime they (claim) they didn't commit. These men promptly escaped from Stromwind stockade to the Westfall Underground. Today, still wanted by many gamers, they survive as idiot savants. If you have a problem, if no one else can help, and if you can find them, maybe you can hire... The B-Team.

Probably was not planned, but I am sure they don't care if people are willing to pay $25 for the mount. Problem, as mentioned it will only take a small hot fix to correct this if they want to.

Maybe it was a ploy to get people in the heroic 5 mans. If it wasn't it worked, lots running 5 mans for goblin rep.

There are those who play tank classes, and those that tank.
The weapon is only as good as the person wielding it.
Free advice is often worth what you pay for it: nothing.

They know how to make money (while spending as little as possible on development to keep the product going).
It really is true business genius.
