When you go to Europe, it used to be micro cars everywhere. Today, a VW Golf is the smallest thing you see and over the last 5 years, more and more CUV's. You'd think that with their price for fuel, they would not be doing that, yet they do. What I see in Canada, is just like the US (exactly...

I will admit, it's much better today but that "print" button is rarely used now. I have a wide format printer that I got 20 years ago and I bet I have not printed anything off of it in 2 years. Everyone just wants a file. Then, if you are doing complex curves you just note the file number...

If you lived in Mexico, you can buy that Spark as a bare bones model (it's called the Beat) for $7300 MSRP. GM is pretty good at taking the previous gen of the cheapest car and keep selling it there. Thus it becomes really cheap by our standards. On the other hand, the Mexican roads and driving...

This is why it shows that a $7450 Elio that gives 84 mpg is still the winner. Gas is king and Elio found the answer 12 years ago. Now I ask, with how bad EV's are, why don't the American public just put all of their money into Elio and show people like Elon that they are dead wrong? So I know...

If you read when it was written (May 2015) Elio continued to delay the project and the government actually helped Elio raise $16M less than a year down the road, thus the government thought what Pail Elio was doing, was just fine. Paul Ash is in charge of this petition. So if you signed it...

When I read these debates, I ask people to just think of the iPhone. It came out mid 2007. Bandwidth on cell phones back then was terrible and people needed to have a real keyboard to type a message. Here we are in 2020 and we type on screens and bandwidth is excellent. So the iPhone was a joke...

I did learn how to fix my electric eraser because they were pretty expensive and it was worth it to fix it. Typically the bearings would start to go. I remember, one of them that I had, I ended up finding some really expensive Japanese bearings for it and having to put the shaft in the freezer...

You make a good point. I suggest people look at other failed crowdfunded projects and the same exact sentiment appears. People think that the company pocketed the money and did nothing. Then they scream, "Someone needs to sue them." What they are really saying is, I bet on the wrong horse and...

What made the SS ones nice was when you needed to erase a curve. Stick it just next to it, flip the switch on the eraser and go to town on it. The clear ones were nice because you could lay it down and at least try to imagine what it was to look like before you put pencil to paper. I still have...

Those french curves over on the left bring back memories of when I did drafting. I have two sets. One is a nice set of SS ones and the others are cheap clear plastic. I ended up using the cheap ones because they worked so much better and you could see through them.

After reading through iPetition, this is all up to Paul Ash. If he doesn't do anything about this then it'll go nowhere. Then it is not that once it gets to 1000 signatures that the class action lawsuit is filed. It says this: That sounds like Paul Ash is hoping that when it reaches 1000...

It's at 1001. So the lawsuit has been filed. Now we just need to find out which law firm filed it.

It's up to 994 now. So in a few days this big class action lawsuit will be filed. I just hope that when the Eliocoin is released, it doesn't drain those resources to the lawsuit but to getting the Elio built. It would be better for Elio to use their legal fund to fight that case separately.

I just checked the blog and no update on tZero or the Eliocoin. I'll keep you up to date when that comes out on the blog. I assume that they are grinding away behind the keyboard, recoding it.

I wonder if this is what has been holding up Eliocoin? They were scheduled to launch it in December but heard nothing. I wonder if tZero needs more funding before they can get Eliocoin up and running? With tZero launching of these markets in H1 2020, that means we can start the countdown clock...

Back in July 2016. The automotive rags were there to drive it. https://www.caranddriver.com/news/a15346077/elio-motors-the-single-doored-84-mpg-three-wheeler-that-could/ The line at the end of the article is interesting:

Maybe look into a $1K non refundable deposit on the Meyers EV then. https://myersev.com/ They even have the Legacy Edition: https://myersev.com/editions.html#header3-jn

Back to the Bricklin, I am still waiting on their EVX/LS. It's a 4 door sedan that costs $35K and gives 100 mpg. It was to be built in 2010 but I guess "they are still working on it." here's the car and the stats. http://lexicommgroup.com/Clients/VV/Bricklin.html Here it is outside: [Broken...

That's the thing. Those were up and coming YouTube channels. So, yes they will use words like "fun" and "neat" but someone could claim the Mirage is "fun" too. Elio missed the opportunity to get people behind the wheel and I still wonder why Elio wouldn't allow anyone to drive it. Elio was...

The Roush announcement was back in March 2016. You'd think by now, Roush has the Elio perfected. Roush can perfect 4 wheelers in that period of time. With this Roush Elio that has been in the pipeline for almost 4 years, you'd think someone in the outside world would take a few laps in it. On...
