    Arcimoto

    Checking the SEC filings today. Looks like Arcimoto has 180 days to get above $1 so they will not be delisted. As we all remember, this happened before and they did a 20:1 stock split. Currently, Arcimoto is around $0.65.

    What is current with the Elio if anything.

    Selling refurbished cars in Phoenix. That's the latest news. News before that, they lost the plant as it's being fully leased out to a few other companies. Where it stands today. Keep the website up and keep the LLC current. Then when the phone rings at Pauls refurbished used car dealer, it...

    What is current with the Elio if anything.

    That's the grand plan. Here's where the new Elio motors is. I found where this operation will be. So it shows that with the off the shelf parts, it'll be easy to make even more Elios. https://www.zillow.com/homedetails/107-W-Hatcher-Rd-Phoenix-AZ-85021/7788723_zpid/

    Elio needs a new plant

    In the US you can just call it a kit car. For example Factory 5 makes kit cars and you use a donor car. Like how most of the Cobra Kit cars are made (they use a Fox body Mustang as a donor). I helped a guy build an 818. He bought a salvage 2009 Subaru and that's what was the donor. Through...

    Elio needs a new plant

    There is a better profit margin. Paul understands this as he had the Elio priced for $1K profit and was to make 250K per year. I wonder if this is the same plan for his new dealer. Rebuild a car, sell it at market price and make $1K per car. Sell 250K per year and that would turn into a money...

    Elio needs a new plant

    I'm passing around my script in Bollywood. Right now it's, "Elio: The Man and His Dreams" and "The Paul and the Elio". I got some bites from Ernie Fosselius as he's made many of the classics, like this one. I like that he did this too as it shows how selling grade A Top Sirloin at seven cents...

    Elio needs a new plant

    He's selling cars that are wrecked and fixed back up. They are renewed, not used. Sort of like used and abused but what difference does that make. It's a big business as many people buy them as they are cheaper than cars not wrecked. I would suggest everyone go there and pick up one of those...

    Elio needs a new plant

    What Paul Elio has done: Paul graduated from General Motors Institute & the Engineering and Management Institute (now Kettering University) in Flint, MI, Magna Cum Laude with a degree in Mechanical Engineering. With over 18 years of engineering and executive management experience, Mr. Elio...

    Elio needs a new plant

    Steve Burns just bought the assets, not the plant. So, he has the Lordstown tooling and equipment but not the actual plant itself. The plant is owned by Foxconn. So, Elio would need to do a lease with Foxconn. It might be a great deal as Foxconn makes iPhones. So this would be a better...

    Elio needs a new plant

    Without the cash burn of the fines and penalties from the Caddo Parish and the banks, they stand a good chance. The OH Governor is happy about the product and it's chances in Lordstown. I bet he is in better shapes as he's not bankrupt like Lordstown is. So, this could be a great restart of Elio...

    Elio needs a new plant

    From what I read, the whole plant is leased out. I assume that since Elio motors has not paid a lease payment since around 2016, that he got kicked out. Plus, the equipment has been defaulted for about that long, thus probably like when you don;t pay for your loan on a car. It goes back to the...

    Elio needs a new plant

    I read an article today and it shows that back in July, 1M sqft was leased out to a company. Before that 600K sqft was leased out to another company. Hyundai Glovis is still there. So all of that plant has been leased out. Elio was leasing 1.3M sqft. That is over and they will need to find a new...

    I Have Given Up On Elio, Have You?

    At least there is a lobbyist group devoted to a thing like this. Give them money and email them on how things like the Elio can be made a reality. I think Joel needs to hear from everyone as he is the one we all know, works for Elio Motors. He can use his knowledge of autocycles to get this...

    I Have Given Up On Elio, Have You?

    We do have the gas guzzler tax. So, all that did was to get the manufacturers to force cars to get above the requirement. Thus the reason why so many automatics as they can program them to do it. Then, what do you do about EV's? Idealistic but not realistic.

    I Have Given Up On Elio, Have You?

    Elio had a lack of interest and Paul was hedging his bet that if he got a plant, did lots of videos, then toured the car, after that apply for the ATVM loan a second time, the deposits would come in like crazy and fund his project. The interest from the public was lacking, the IPO was mediocre...

    2024 Chevy Blazer RS

    I have a neighbor with a black Chevy Truck. Black is really hard to get to look good but he did that coating when it was new and after three years, it looks great. Plus it's parked outside all of the time.

    2024 Chevy Blazer RS

    I am amazed that with these ceramic coatings, how the gloss is so much better than it was when you had to put a few coats of wax on. On my other cars, I did a DIY ceramic coating and even discovered it works on the plastic trim too. Not like the old days where if you waxed a car and got it on...

    The first - ever all - electric Blazer EV

    Instead of touting it, then get with the program. Ford has been pushing this for about 20 years. I know. Back in the day a company here called Air Products is the largest producer of Hydrogen on the planet. They had Hydrogen powered Ford e series with the V10 to transport people around their HQ...

    Nimbus

    Great idea. I'd think that FUV would have an arrive and drive. Maybe they will have a test drive at Summit Point WVA. I know they do not sell in that state but it's right on the border of VA. So close to DC the FBI even uses it as a training facility.

    I Have Given Up On Elio, Have You?

    Don't forget 7600 General Motors BLVD in Shreveport LA 71129. That's the manufacturing plant for Elio motors. I would check there as it's a big facility and they could be working out of there too. When you are leasing a property, you sure will be using it and not paying a monthly lease payment...
