I've been involved in a lot of enthusiast forums over the years, even created and administered one. I must say, there is a core group on this forum that competes to jump on anything that resembles a suggestion or criticism outside of their view of what the Elio should be. Rudeness is plentiful. My way, or get out of the way. If you guys truly want to spread the Elio word, try being welcoming and friendly to all comers. Instead of writing nasty replies to legitimate concerns/questions, try stepping outside of your comfort zone and don't hit that submit button. Personally, I truly hope the Elio makes it. No doubt, once its out, this forum will abound with the excitement and versatility of this fun/commuter/car/motorcycle/tourer/trike thing as new owners make it their own. Until then, lets all try not to fill the vacuum with nasty. /soapbox
AMEN

Bless you JN2W, If anyone recalls I jumped on the 'conversation w/ElioOwners' wagon many moons ago so I could enjoy following the progression & metamorphosis of 'the Machine' but as the forums grew I was shunned away by the negativity.( I can get that anywhere these days). When you are slapped several times you don't stick around. I, again, will attempt to be a part of the team. It is just so amazing that when I read the paper, or watch the news or check out online facts that my stomach turns :(. All I do then is say the magic word; ELIO, and a smile grabs my face :). Give it a try, -later, ctfink from Illinois !

Is the plate for real? cool on your current car if it is, but I think the E will be a motorcycle size plate
