    No Rear Window / Rear View Camera

    I was thinking that's where you'd want to mount mirrors for those wanting to tow a small trailer.

    Elio Distribution And Direct Sales

    Labor cost is already included in the COST, while changes in the cost of labor will affect profit, it doesn't come directly out of it. I suggest taking an accounting class when you make it to high school.

    The Elio Automatic Transmission

    Edit: picture aimed squarely at pj, not Brian.

    EPS is getting commonplace on ATVs nowadays. I doubt a vehicle the size of the Elio would need more than that. Off the shelf parts again.

    Elio Distribution And Direct Sales

    Correct. I'm not committing to buy a $6800 anything until I get some hands on time. Not saying we need dealerships per se, but a store that has at least one demo model.

    What Happened To Yellow?

    Heck, I'll be happy just picking a color. My cars have always been used, I buy based on what's available that has what I want, in whatever color the first owner wanted. Torn between the silver that shouldn't look totally filthy after the first mile of dirt road, or the spiffy looking electric...

    No More Love For The Upper Midwest

    We don't all hate ya. I get down there a couple times a year, good people. I think Elio would be well served getting this in front of a bunch of race fans in Newton or Knoxville.

    No Rear Window / Rear View Camera

    As a reformed truck driver, I disagree. Rear view mirror in my car and truck seldom get glanced at. Side mirrors are about all I use. Just a habit from a half million miles without a back window.

    Gfx Ideas

    One of you artists feel like making me a Packers themed design? I'm thinking the G logo would look great on the front fenders. 550 miles to Lambeau and back from here. Less than 7 gallons of gas in an Elio!

    The Elio Engine

    Nor were reservations intended to be the sole source of financing. Doesn't need to happen.

    Unfortunately, I use Tapatalk on my phone, and it doesn't ignore. I have him set to ignore on my computer but still see every post when mobile.

    Well, at least it sounds like pj hit the bottle hard enough to tell us what he really thinks tonight. It was tiring reading that small car dealer print between the lines of his standard 3 wheel, price, etc. post that he'd repeat 20 times a day for us.

    Trust me when I tell you that you don't want to know the price of farm tractor tires these days. A pair of good radials gets close to Elio money.

    When Will Production Begin?

    Sorry, can't help myself. Been fishing for trolls for a long time. They're kinda like Sunfish, can't hardly beat em off your hook some days.

    When Will Production Begin?

    Care to share a source for that "news"?

    One of the reasons for larger wheels (beyond styling, which is probably #1) is the ability to fit bigger brakes. I doubt highly that brakes that wouldn't fit inside a 15 are needed. Brakes that size stopped the biggest cars and 1/2 ton full size trucks not that long ago,

    Where exactly is this "published financial plan"? I'd like to see it.

    WTE, your tie is too tight. It's a common problem in your type. I have 23 years manufacturing experience, all of it on the floor, grease under the nails work. I'm the guy that makes all your problems go away when there's a crisis of the day. I and many others like me spend our workdays living...
