The fuvowners site seems to have gone mostly dark. I really don't care about the Arcimoto, but had hoped that RickB would finally get his trike after all these years of chasing the dream. It's about, if not past, the date that I had last understood that he should have taken delivery, but nothing appears to have happened.
They're coming off the assembly line. Slowly, but they're making them. They just sent three to New Zealand today.

Thats great. Rick should be very close to the top of the list
They are literally delivering daily now. One of today's happy recipients has been driving his Beta, "Goldie" for quite a few months. If memory serves correctly, Steve had hauled up to 500lb. of packages to the post office on a regular basis with Goldie. He's pictured here today behind the bars of his new personalized Evergreen upgrade, "Goldie II" courtesy of Arcimoto.

Mark Frohnmayer: "To be clear, our friends in NZ, our first franchisee in Key West and some early large investors were allowed into the initial 100 Evergreen sales. They are not jumping the first 100 queue. We appreciate everyone’s continued support as we begin the roll out and get this show on the road!"

To be real clear, the order people signed up, and the order that Evergreen models may be delivered have a very loose relationship. Are you still involved with fuvowners.com? No deliveries have been reported there. Not to say that all buyers are on the forum, but there is still zero independent corroboration of deliveries or performance specifications. At least, none that I am aware of.

I'm only a moderator there these days. I handed ownership of the site over to another individual. Contrary to what was stated, there are a couple of new "delivered" pins on the map. At least one is an Evergreen pin. As you've probably noticed by the activity level of that forum as well as this one, websites and forums are mostly a thing of the past. Most human beings have willingly given power over the internet and over their lives to the major social media tyrants. With a simple DIY website, my former business used to be the top 30 or so results for a lot of major search terms worldwide on Alta Vista in the 90s. There was no greedy Google monster constantly changing the rules until they had morphed everything into a "pay to play" platform. The internet used to be a free medium. That didn't last long. Sadly, most of us seem to continue to give away our freedoms in exchange for the quickest, easiest, most convenient and (some think) "safest" way of doing things. Rant over. There's a ton of activity and corroboration at the FUV group that I revived on Facebook. The majority of people who signed up for an FUV over the last few years going all the way back to ten years ago, did NOT sign up for an Evergreen. They all were given the opportunity to do so a few months ago, much like how all the Elio reservation holders were given the opportunity to move up in line by changing their refundable to non-refundable, then to the $1k level. To my knowledge the Evergreens are being built and delivered in the order in which they were reserved.

And here's a bunch of corroboration in picture form directly from Arcimoto.

Can you show the after pic? The one where the NYPD tickets them for having the front wheel sticking way out in the traffic. Then the one after that where the NYC garbage truck takes out all RF corner of all them.
Hilarious. Especially the fact that someone who claims to have as much experience in the auto industry as yourself can't seem to be able to differentiate the RF from the LF. According to today's standard of using the driver's view as the reference point that is.
