What I said is 100% FACT. If you can find any fault in it post it. I know what I agreed to. Not one word I said was meant to be a jab at ELIO. It is just fact. It does no good to try and lead people into thinking the ELIO is going to roll out the door any time soon . It is not. ELIO will let us know when it is time. They will be wanting the payments.
All in at $1000 . Never guaranteed me an ELIO or a delivery date Not even a price. Read it.
The "Commitment to Purchase" I signed did not give me a delivery date. It also did not guarantee me an ELIO , ever.
What it did do was give ELIO a contract that says I and others the signed them will buy ours at an agreed price, when ELIO builds it. It also for the first time locked in a price on a base model.
ELIO hopes to use those contracts as leverage in their quest to raise funds. Not a bad move IMO. That contact is worth much more than the $1000 all in to them.
Those that have not done so step up. Send in your $1000, sign your "Commitment to Purchase". If you have the extra cash buy a few shares.
In my last post My EILO # came out wrong it is #8019. . I went all in as soon as I stumbled on the ELIO.

All of the above plus I have an Elio account, just waiting to be liquidated! The sooner the better. Some good news will come soon. (Only a guess)

The 65,000 number has no real meaning. It does not mean ELIO gets a loan. It is a number ELIO picked thinking it might improve their chance.

This is the part people were asking for clarification on. There was some indication from Elio in the blog that announced the binding commitments and 65k number that those were put in place to satisfy new ATVM loan requirements after discussing them with the DOE. Even if that weren't the case, there would still be meaning to it in that they need to explain what the reservation program will look like afterward.

Last week there was 292 reservations left,with 15 per day. What will it be tomorrow? My guess is 150. What is yours?

There will be big news after 65000 is hit. 15 people a day for the $7000 lock down is not going to keep Elio afloat. They must have something planned to get the daily reservations up to at least 50.

Reaservation smershervation.
Elio needs to get going in Shreveport before there the Racer Trust "complex timeline" fine.
IMO, why current E.M. focus is on behind the scenes funding. It is do or die time. No do is not necessarily permanent die, but current vision of the Elio future would become cloudy.

15 a day was last weeks total, I am looking for 20 a day for this weeks total.

Why is this forum call "Elio Owners" when no one actually "owns" one.
May it should be renamed the "I'm hopeful someday I'll own an Elio Forum"
Or, maybe it should be renamed the "Someday my Elio will come" (with Disney Music) ?
