The easiest thing to do with one's life – is to be negative and to stay that way.

We have a few around this forum that came to this site being negative – and are still negative. They will always be negative. When the Elio is finally in production and hit the road they'll still find things to complain about.
You need people from both sides to learn. Fox will never convert Democrats and CNN will not convert Republicans. Preaching to the choir does not accomplish anything. You do not have to agree with opposing view points, but to dismiss them blindly is foolish. People are negative and positive about Elio for a reason.

As always...Paul has a decade long tradition of being long on words and short on actions...

The lack of proper SEC reporting says it all...

The stark reality is...investors and resevation holders have lost lost millions been associated with Elio Motors...

Other than paying off a few of Elio’s debts...nothing has changed...

Unfortunately...”hope” is never a good business tool...

We must have listened to a different interview. A man believes what he wants to believe and disregards the rest.
Paul Simon...The Boxer... Luv it!

What a fool believes, he sees...
The wise man has the power to reason away...
What seems to be is is always better than nothing...
Than nothing at all...

The Doobie Brothers

*This titta reasons in Paul Elio!

Personally, I don't dismiss anything blindly. I read every word and give the words consideration.

What I have noticed is that occasionally posters come to this site with nothing but negativity. (As with any forum – on any subject.)
I've read their first posts, their middle posts and current posts. It's always negative and snarky. I'm not so sure they even like the concept of the Elio – because they've never said anything positive.

I'm all for being a realist. It's also a good thing for one to be fair.

PS – I do appreciate the moderators and thank them!!

If you do that, it will happen.... Had a Field of Dreams last night!
Dream update...In my dream, the ELIO will sell in the millions (surpassing the VW Bug by miles)... the ultimate people's car...giving everyone who hasn't experienced it the feeling of symmetry flying in a single seat prop plane. I can't wait...it will be like heaven on earth...almost better than sex! Fly the road...Go ELIO!!!

How is it hyperbole and speculation when yesterday Paul literally had a press conference saying the that the production timeline had started and deliveries would commence in late 2019. No "pending funding" or anything like that, sounded to me like it's s done deal.
"We need to get the last piece of capital in place and then we're there." --Paul Elio 05-11-18
As in, the funding is not yet in place. It's the same thing exact thing he's said for years!

If I looked hard enough, I'm pretty sure I'd be able to find the same basic quote, made almost word-for-word by him in 2016.
