    Lest we forget....

    Answer me this, why did the Saudis invest so much into Lucid? Maybe they did so they can control the company and make it fail? I'm guessing that they decided to invest into building a plant in Saudi Arabia that will build Lucids. I also guess the master plan it to retrofit them with LS6's and...

    Lest we forget....

    In our state we have yearly state inspections. Thus when you bring in a vehicle or motorcycle, they have to enter the mileage in the state computer. Thus, the mileage is known. Plus for registration, you need to put down the mileage each year or two. I do know on old classic plated cars, there...

    Lest we forget....

    If what you say is true, then Tesla would have never made it because they have lowered gas sales, not just in the US but globally. In addition to that, why did the gas companies invest heavily into Lucid? It's an EV and thus results in lower gas ales. Car companies. With this being what you...

    Lest we forget....

    You need to go back to 2016 when this was discussed heavily (about the incoming administration) and many wrote to that administration for them to help Elio. Also, what powerful interest groups never wanted to see Elio on the market? Please explain because if you are thinking it, then you have...

    Lest we forget....

    A few things I took away from with his interview: 1. Same exact speech and stats he gave out over 10 years ago when he was pushing Elio Motors. 2. His company has failed. Which means, it's done. 3. I knew he would resurface in another market and he has done so. This is because this new market...

    Arcimoto

    I guess that $6M loan Arcimoto took out and sticking up the Ramp facility up for collateral, didn't work out. Now that facility is not theirs any more. https://eugeneweekly.com/2024/11/21/from-ev-factory-to-rv-storage/

    Elijah's Oyster and Fish Camp

    What happens is that when you disconnect the battery or clear the light, it resets the rediness monitors. Every car is different on how to reset them but usually a few drive cycles will do the trick. The garage told me that Jeep Wranglers are the worst because they have seen those go two weeks...

    Christmas Travel 2024

    We usually go to Killington, VT but this year decided to pass as I'm still healing from my torn ACL I got there last year. Don't want to take a chance. Instead, we will drive an hour to Secaucus, NJ, take the train over to NYC and go see a broadway show. That'll be easy. Plus maybe we will get...

    So Elio made a ship?

    Lest we forget....

    Mine will be in yellow and have the Ford Ecoboost turbo motor in it. When I get it tuned, look for a 150hp Elio.

    My Elio Alternate Project Is Underway.

    How about Porsche? As we all know, the front of a 991 is an aluminum front end and attached by rivets, bolts and adhesive to the center structure. Plus we all know that unless you are an approved Porsche repair center, they will not sell you the parts because they are concerned that you will not...

    New Site Direction?

    Three wheelers are a niche market. No matter how much fun (a Vanderhall is super fun) it shows why Arcimoto and Elio failed. Vanderhall keeps going because they know three wheelers are a niche and build out accordingly. Instead of thinking that they can sell 50K per year, they know if they crank...

    New Site Direction?

    Here's the thing. You hear from the same 20 people that seem to live in the Eugene area. They love them but there are 1K of them out there and either they are put up for sale at a heavily discounted price or the rest are silent and typically have them bricked in a garage somewhere. If it was so...

    New Site Direction?

    Arcimoto went to the production finish line and went broke after that. So they literally have lots of irritated people, which the company left them hanging for just basic parts and service (unless you live in Eugene). I think that is worse than Elio. Imagine spending $25K on an Aptera and then...

    The FUV is not dead, gasping for breath yes, but Arcimoto has not filed for bankruptcy. Same can be said about Elio. So we have two companies that there's no way we can contact them who are still in business.

    Everyone has given up. It's a fact. We all know it's not going to happen. Paul did what I predicted years ago, run out the clock. People just move on and the company disappeared. Only hope some have is that Paul pays a few bucks a year to have the initial page on a URL. He is devoting his time...
