I will have to get one of those "GlassMaster" helpers. At first I thought it was the woman and thought "If I tried to get my woman to do that she would probably stuff me in the trunk and drive on a rough road for a while, until I learned my lesson". The GlassMaster wand does look like a good solution to my Elio windshield cleaning question. That, and as FC said, opening both windows should also help. Thanks for the tips.

I like to get to the point. ;)

If you haven't noticed, Tesla isn't doing so well:

Do you it would be a good business decision to sell and build the more expensive models before the cheaper ones, especially with reservation holders, which some of us have been waiting several years?

Elio has said time and time again that they are trying make a "car" that is affordable for all. Adding 5k to it makes it less affordable. ;)
What higher price do you think some buyers' would go for that would allow a less costly production model for a while to get to production and put some vehicles on the rood? What do you think of ~ $10K?

Elio has calculated that the average price for the reservation holders will be just over $10K right now. So, adding let's say $5K on top of that would bring you to just over $15K and that's just way too expensive because there are other 4 wheelers out there that are close to that price.

You call us a bunch of losers – and then you ask if anyone (losers in your opinion) wants to buy your reservation. LOL….

Your first post was Oct 2017 and it was trying to sell your reservation. I REALLY hope you sell it.
rguercio wants to sell a non-transferable reservation. And he call us losers? Maybe he thinks we're suckers.

I read the first post in this thread and immediately realized he was simply baiting everyone so I skipped to the end here and see that this thread has meandered into a thread that is now, apparently, about the dash. I'm sure there was some mean spirited stuff in the middle of these 48 posts but I'm not going to read them. I'm in too good of a mood today to let one ass clown bring me down. In fact, it would take a circus of ass clowns to do that and I'm not going to play that game. So, Mr. original instigator, I mean poster, you lose this round.

If we're going to get off topic on this thread, I have a question. Do you think it's ok to kiss on the first date? I mean if both parties are mature, liberal adults.

It'd better to not kiss on the first date. I'd just go home and keep monitoring my AOL account. When it tells me that I have mail, then I know on the second date, it's time to smooch.

Doesn't look like we'll have any choice what style images we'll get, but if I did I'ed choose something like these. The retro looks kind a appeals to me.

This is why Elio should have gone with a TFT style dash. That way you can build in 4-5 different screens. Like analog look, then it's just fine. Like digital to make you feel like you are in a jet fighter or racecar, that's covered too. They are actually getting cheaper than traditional instrument clusters, thus the reason why manufacturers are switching over to them. Best part is, you can make them as basic as you want (for people that don't like technology) or really complex (for the ones that do).

We went through this a long time ago when they had that (YUK!) Paul Elio design in it.
It was a tribute to his father.
And then they changed it to what it is now.
I had found similar style gauges that would fit the "pods" they had

And they had different faces, or different backgrounds.

They also had digital

Pretty much unlimited options

Wow, $10K is a large average price. Buyers must be planning for a lot of options over the $7,500 price. I would not recommend another $5K since I original mentioned $12K and you thought that was to high. I like the $12K to see if they could get into production.
