    Elio Gauge Cluster - Lord Elgin? - Other Options?

    What a 'tribute' to his father; will go down in history as the WORST dash design, along with other 'flops'..... like the Edsel Grill! Not 'functional' for quick information 'at a glance'..... and too much 'wasted space'!

    Thought you couldn't ANSWER that..... 'easy way out'!

    Elio Gauge Cluster - Lord Elgin? - Other Options?

    That is NOT what the photo provided by Elio Motors SHOWS! Where is your information of 'all digital' coming from..... or does it "only exist in your head"? Where is the 'proof' of a new and 'improved' Elgin Dash design? Hummm, "digital gauges" are not "physical"..... perhaps you mean 'not...

    Now I see WHY you have that 'username'!...... although I could think of others.

    Elio Gauge Cluster - Lord Elgin? - Other Options?

    Please explain how the Elgin dash design is "the very best design", and how choosing to design and manufacture unique gauges (in small limited quantities) is cost effective..... when many other gauges are available 'off the shelf', have been road/driver tested, and would be less expensive.

    09/17/2014 - Tech Talk - Elio Motors Takes Major Step Toward Producing New Vehicle At Massive Shreve

    When they purchased the GM equipment (in early 2013), they had an inventory of the items. The Lawyers and Politicians had 'no effect' in their ability to evaluate what they could use and what they should sell. They could have SOLD the equipment, even BEFORE they signed a lease on the factory...

    Sure,....... if your want to ruin the tire..... or have purchased 'run flats'.

    Elio Gauge Cluster - Lord Elgin? - Other Options?

    It "continues to be an issue", because Elio Motors (last week) has said; "the Elgin inspired dash is planned to be standard", and they have provided nothing except their 'original concept'. Posting a sketch or photo in their Weekly BLOG, takes no more time...... than writing an article about...

    09/17/2014 - Tech Talk - Elio Motors Takes Major Step Toward Producing New Vehicle At Massive Shreve

    "Come on"...... questioning my intelligence because I report and document items that have actually HAPPENED, but you, on the other hand, go with 'could a, should a, might of,' "they are moving it now because they have a buyer or buyers". Going from a statement that Elio Motors has finally...

    Elio Gauge Cluster - Lord Elgin? - Other Options?

    So "Jerome said"..... how about Elio Motors SHOWING us in one of their Weekly BLOGS, or Tech Talks..... so this can end? They know the 'discontent' and have had several months to DO IT ..... IF they actually have something to show. Until that happens, we can only go on what they have...

    09/17/2014 - Tech Talk - Elio Motors Takes Major Step Toward Producing New Vehicle At Massive Shreve

    Good to see some positive announcements, although this has been 'in the works' for a long while. “Major Step”.... They have been saying that they 'planned' to get rid of un-needed equipment for the past year and a half. “The unusual step of selling the surplus equipment”? That is just 'standard...

    Elio Gauge Cluster - Lord Elgin? - Other Options?

    Please don't start your 'rebuttal' by MISSTATING what I said! I never stated "'off she shelf' dashes"...... I said, "'off the shelf' parts". Sure DASHES are composed of many 'components'..... didn't think I'd have to enumerate that to you. Show me ONE 'off the shelf' speedometer or tachometer...

    Elio Gauge Cluster - Lord Elgin? - Other Options?

    VERY TRUE, Elio Motors is their company and they can run it as they choose. They have decided to go a 'non traditional' path; instead of waiting in secrecy until they have a 'Production Vehicle' to put on sale, they have gone 'public' early with a website and FaceBook page, and a 'Tour of...

    Elio Gauge Cluster - Lord Elgin? - Other Options?

    Well it has been OVER 6 MONTHS.... and they haven't done it YET. Instead we have seen a 'worthless' COLOR CONTEST.... that 'wasted' a MONTH of BLOG reports, but no more information on the controversial Dash Design. Time is 'running out', IF they are to begin production of the "E" Series...

    Elio Gauge Cluster - Lord Elgin? - Other Options?

    If they want (or care) about 'feedback' on their CURRENT or NEWEST design...... all they have to do is PUBLISH it in their Weekly BLOG..... not too difficult! If they don't appreciate the 'comments'..... then just SHOW US something better.

    Social Or Factual

    It would be easy to discuss the ELIO...... if Elio Motors would just release some 'current information' in their Weekly BLOG!

    Financing Elio Motors Development And Production

    I hope your 'timeline' and calculations are correct, but they will have to conduct the most 'critical testing', to insure meeting the 'Crash Safety Rating' and the 'MPG' goals FIRST, in case any DESIGN CHANGES are required. So more than a 'couple' "E" Series vehicles will be required (do they...

    Prototype Questions

    Actually, Elio Motors had to get a 'waiver' from the Federal Motocycle Regulations..... since for Dual Motorcycle Headlights..... they are TOO FAR APART!

    Financing Elio Motors Development And Production

    According to several Elio Motors statements, they purchased the GM tooling, and owned it..... even before the building lease was signed. " Elio Motors 1. When GM abandoned the plant, they left the necessary production tools behind. They are in our possession, and we have not fully started...

    Financing Elio Motors Development And Production

    First, I'm not sure where you got that Elio Motors did not have the Shreveport Plant until 1 May 2014, when “Elio responded on Facebook just a bit short of an hour ago 04/11/2014: Yes, we have secured the plant in Shreveport, LA. “ So, do YOU believe it is 'realistic' for Elio Motors to BUILD &...
