When I go out in the middle of nowheresville Ohio and Indiana, my customers have businesses that have a parking lot 90% full of pickup trucks. They are not buying the super fuel efficient car. I can almost see them looking at an expensive pickup because in this day of age, it's the norm. Ford...
It'e not the prettiest thing out there but it'll be interesting how it works out. With Elio coming on line and as company like this, it'll me interesting to see how one that has zero buyers works out.
Here's another video of the truck. Does this seem like something you'd buy?
Found this today and forgot about them actually. So this is the Electric pickup Truck and SUV. From my experience, looks quite production ready. Plus made in USA (Normal, IL).
Plus local workers getting excited for their once shut down plant...
In 2017 Paul showed up in Shreveport and apologized for not communicating good enough. Then he left and came back a year later. So if Paul reads this at all, there's one thing that he needs to do, get better with communications. Even if it's not good news, at least show your face. It's been a...
Tube frame is labor intensive and expensive. It depends on what Sondors is thinking the number they need to make per year and the labor costs at the plant. If you are like Polaris and make your three wheeler in Alabama (along with other Polaris products) and plan to sell about 10K units per...
One of the videos shows the rear hub motor. So, I'd assume it's still working. To make it FWD, they will either have to add two front hub motors or a single motor with a diff. I think the RWD version is the best when it comes to packaging as they can get the biggest battery possible in it. I...
Here's an article about three wheelers. They even talk to Dominic Dobson who is a Solo rep in Portland (plus you can test drive a Solo).

Anyone in the Portland area who is getting an Elio, could test drive one and at...
Cars will average a $2,450 increase all while getting an average of 24.7 mpg. The Elio is priced at a targeted $7,450 and gets up to a targeted 84 mpg. Just like the average price of a gallon of gas in the US is, $2.24. So just look at the numbers that make your case. If you are writing press...
Also, with the Solo and Arcimoto looking more like a polished production piece, they will see ore after the reservations are fulfilled. That's what those companies have to do because nobody want's a company to fill the reservations and then they go out of business. They all want those companies...
Have you ever seen ESG or their facility? ESG has been operating out of a residential home for years and moved out of their last address in 2010. As for Technosports, they are not of the same ability as Roush.They are great at building those special prototypes but not close to Roush. Also, you...
It's only 38 miles from Overstocks HQ to the Vanderhall Plant. So, with all of the real estate around Provo that the Hall family owns, I could see Vanderhall taking on a customer. Utah could become the three wheeler mecca of the US.
Roush did not build the cars. That was someone else. I can tell you that from my experience, there's no way Elio would have had the knowledge, manpower and software to make a unibody. So, someone had to design it and Roush has the ability to do it. Again, a coincidence that the one company that...
Some great news for Elio. With 90% USMCA parts and the low targeted $7,450, this will be the choice for many since the average price of a car can go up $2,450 soon. People will not be able to afford a new car and the only choice will be the Elio...
