I just did a quick look and saw that the 2015 King Ranch Ford F150 Super Duty offers a heated, leather wrapped/wood steering wheel.

no disrespect intended ….

we are talking about a $6800. vehicle (MAYBE) !

reality, when the big red button is pushed and ElioMobiles come popping out the back end (HOPEFULLY), these WILL be the early models with flaws ..

even the big guys have recalls, so to think a new startup company without putting out a small fleet of tester cars, is not going to have "issues" is being nieve …..
buy hit, drive it, trade it in for a newer model ..
gas in the tank, oil in the engine, and a hose to spray off the dirt

it is just a little cheep three wheel transportation vehicle

there is no fine Corinthian leather in the ElioMobile !

pleather , the ElioMobile is all about

PLEATHER !

Happy Thanksgiving !

:D

Bras (on women and cars) is like covering artwork with a burlap sack "to protect it". What good is a beautiful thing you can't see?

My Elio will have it's front end free, for all the world to see.

Seriously, I never understood putting an ugly piece of tarp on the front of a 10, 20, 30,000 dollar or more car.

That is what's cool about the "Clear Guard" (and others like it). Imagine your wife meeting you at the front door wearing nothing but Saran Wrap! :D :p I tend to agree with you about "not" covering.(tho, I am not condoning public nudity) Seeing as all of the colors available (Silver being the acception) for the E are solid colors (non- metallic), touching up little chips will not be difficult to do on your own.
I think there are some "misconceptions" about the clear protective films and wraps that need to be cleared up....time for a new thread?

No one has mentioned a most desirable option, a heated steering wheel - you have no idea how nice they are until you have used one.
Why an option for a heated seat, here in South Florida, just park for a minutes and bingo- heated steering wheel, heated seat, heated.......... TG for AC! We are really suffering down here this Thanksgiving day, it's about 60- Jacksonville, has a frost warning! OMG when will we get relief!!

Just a few seconds of that noise is annoying as hell.... It would have been a great video if that D-Bag had gotten sideswiped....

Why do so many people think that other people will be impressed by the sound of their engine ? Nobody cares, really!
You must have been the bully in the neighborhood who pushed the kid of his bike because he had playing cards in his spokes. LOL
