I'm not sure why Elio is expected to give out information on demand to a relatively small forum (sorry, but a bit over 2k members does not make us a major demographic) about information that may still be in flux and that we really have no real need to know about. Granted, it would be nice to know, I would like to know but the demands to know baffles me. We all know the general timeline, we all know that things are coming together, we all know it is taking time due to multiple factors (time, supply chain, money/funding, the complexity of the project). It's a startup with a leader that is learning on the job (and so far as I can tell, doing well, completing each step before proceeding to the next), so living with uncertainty should be a given rather than be taken by surprise. I entered into the whole process with the idea that "Failure is an option" and enjoying the ride with each successful step providing a sense of excitement. It seems that others have entered with "Failure is not an option" and live lives with more angst than a teenager discovering a zit the day of the prom. It's all in how you approach this whole project. I say, lean back,enjoy the ride, the scenery and the people you meet along the way. That way if for some sad reason Elio doesn't come to fruition you still will profit from the whole adventure. By the way, mine will be James Bond Black. That sounds like more adventure than Licorice would provide.
That's right, get it right the first time and avoid recalls......Most Engineers are fussy, meticulous, intelligent, people. Very structured , organized. No detail goes unnoticed. In my service business, I run into theses types on occasion. Lets put it this way, I'd rather deal with more casual , easy to please types! But , these Elio folks are the people I want putting together my next car! I trust these guys will get it right. Look at their plan. Genius at many levels, in my opinion.
PS, my oldest son is in his second year at college, majoring in ................engineering!
