It is mid term election year and nobody want to be known as the person who killed off Elio and cost Shreveport 1500 jobs because of a massive fine on a frivolous suit. It's no different than the guy from the Caddo Parish that got Paul Elio down to Shreveport to give a talk. He knows that this...

I still like going under the car but in the winter when it cold and snowy, I really don't want to be crawling under the car. It has a heavy duty bellypan on it with about 10 bolts holding it on. Plus, I can tell that in typical German fashion, they were bored and decided that that a threaded...

All I can say is please buy up as much Elio stock as you can. I'd appreciate it.

On the others hand, most have really easy oil and spark plug changes. I guess Elio could compare themselves to a Ferrari or McLaren where on some of them you got to remove the motor for spark plug changes and thus not easy to work on. If you are comparing regular cheap cars you can buy today...

You bring up something I never thought about. How do you lift up an Elio on a 2 post lift. you know, the really popular ones that most repair shops have. I can see the two front arms would be fine but I just don't see the rear. Even at full extension they are still a few feet apart. A single...

Greed in all of it's forms, greed for life, for money, for love, knowledge, has marked upward surge of mankind, and greed, you mark my words will not only save Elio Motors, but that other malfunctioning corporation called the USA. - - G. Gekko

Here's something to remember. Since western companies operate in China and use them for parts and even manufacture there, the Chinese have learned what level of quality they need to reach for various markets. The belief is that Chinese items are junk when we know that can be the case yet not for...

Since I deal with Chinese companies and spend lots of time there, I can tell you I think many underestimate their abilities and look at the future. For the car industry I bet they will push low cost EV’s. Since they do it for their home market, the US is a ripe market. I’m starting to wonder if...

I agree.

The ironic part is Elio is banned from selling autocycles in Utah unless they do it through a franchised dealer. Vanderhall is an autocycle company in Provo, Utah had to finally get a real franchised dealer to sell them in that state even though they make autocycles there.

We even have a bicentennial farm here locally and trust me, the money that guy gets to just keep farming and not sell the land, is ridiculous. It's like with my investment properties. I replaced all of the windows, HVAC units and water heaters in 2017 and I got a massive tax credit (more than...

I'm in a similar situation. I have 4 investment properties, thus 4 mortgages. I could take all of my stocks cash them in and use up all my savings to pay them off today. I seriously doubt the bank will start handing out loans to the poor because I did that. The bank has plenty of money to loan...

The dream of making a car that will provide 20K jobs, reduce oil consumption by 0.5%, help the poor get back on their feet and turn around the economy of Shreveport.

I assume you are upset about the window, HVAC and water heater companies selling products on your dime. Then there's the farmers.....

The US will be one of the last to adopt EV's on a mass scale. It's just the way it is. We are behind on many things but you'd never know it unless you travel to other countries. Europe and Asia embrace new technology where we get dragged into it. It's good because they work out the bugs before...

This has nothing to do with Tesla. Please open up your geographical area. China is way ahead of everyone when it comes to EV’s. As for the US, we will stick with ICE for a long time.

I have lots of designs that are done. It’s that they are not finalized. Big difference. If you look at the Black Elio, it’s not close to being done. All of the CAD screenshots that Elio posts shows that the design is done but as for the actual parts made and being tested, I have not seen any of...

You already know the answer, others just won't look up the info and thus do not believe you. As for an answer from the source, they will not give you an answer because "We don't comment on pending litigation".
