not for the vast majority of folks in the country who don't seem to have ever so much has heard of an Elio
Well they are selective about where they spend their limited time. I would enjoy a visit to Milwaukee but can understand them not showing up there.

Jerome told me last December in Charlotte that they hope to be able to visit every city in which they will have a dealership .... I have no clue as to how close they are to that goal

I remember in the 70's when the Honda Accord were the hottest item going (about '76 I think) Seemed that all the dealerships had waiting lists, and the dealers were tacking on $1000-1500 to the list price and getting it! That was a lot for a car that listed for about 5K. I bought a Toyota, even though I wanted the Honda. If Elio does gets off the ground, I can see people not wanting to wait paying 1-2K over list, and still getting a vehicle for less than the cheapest Hyundai, or Kia. I won't be letting my reservation go, I want that Elio. I knew there was a risk when I put my money in. If the money was more important to me than the vehicle, I wouldn't have payed to play. I only wish I hadn't delayed the all in decision. If it doesn't happen, at least I voted with my money for the concept. No risk, no reward. I see Paul Elio in the same light as Elon Musk, both visionary entrepreneurs expected to fail.
