    Automated Transmission In Dodge Van Test By Car And Driver

    BMW made the SMG transmission starting with the 1996 e36 M3. It's literally an M3 manual transmission with the shift detents removed and then a computer operates the rest of it (including the clutch). SMG I was OK but SMG II (used on the later ones and the e92 M3) is a great system. It's better...

    Poopy Puppy Productions. Et Cetera.

    Where was that at? I see it was shot on March 1, 2017. It would be nice if Elio would publish their shows for this year because if it was close to me, I'd want to go see it.

    What I Like Best About The Elio Autocycle

    How many people here have driven an Elio out on the street? I know many have sat in one. I know when I sat in one, nothing worked (I guess the battery was unhooked). I just wonder how it drives out on the street.

    What I Like Best About The Elio Autocycle

    Poll For Increased North American Content

    Some VW Mexico and US info: The VW plant in Mexico is in Puebla and has been in use since 1964. Since 1994, just about every Golf, Jetta and New Beetle in the US came from that plant. The new 2018 Tiguan will be built there too. If you go to a VW dealer later this year, the only VW's made...

    Poll For Increased North American Content

    From my manufacturing experience, most parts will come within the geographical area and if they are to be made in the US, most likely in TN, SC, NC, MS, AL, LA and TX. They tend to avoid the northern states due to the unions. As for Mexican made parts for the US, they are normally from the...

    What Is The Latest Start Production Date?

    Stu looks like he is more into providing a business with the real estate to make your business work, not throwing money at it to make it happen. As for you the person who gets the property, you need to make it work. I suspect Stu has handed a GM plant to Paul on a silver platter. If Paul can't...

    Picked Up A Handy Item At A Yard Sale.

    Hope it wasn't this guy. Because in 2015, we don't need roads which would spell a disaster for Elio.

    Reservations: 65341 As Of 6/20/2017

    I notice that there's no update to the reservations number. Maybe the marketing person could get on that since it was going up by a good amount at the end. I'm just spitballing here. I wonder if the BoD told Paul to stop doing Skype interviews because all it does is turn into bad press. Same...

    Lunch doesn't get itself and the garbage cans don't empty themselves. Thus, that's the job for the marketing people.

    Electra Meccanica (three Wheel Electric) Email-11/2/15

    I was at the Detroit Grand Prix a few years ago and for the SCCA World Challenge race, they had a Leaf as a pace car. Between sessions, they had it plugged into one of those big commercial generators. There were some pics floating around but I remember that they ended up closing off the area for...

    Had A Heart Attack . . . .

    A group of us do cycling. One guy is 55 years old and he is the poster guy for health. He does triathlons, ironmans and lots of running. Over this past summer after a 50 mile group ride, he went home and an hour later had a massive heart attack. As we all found out, it runs in his family and he...

    Atvm News - 2018 Fed Budget Proposal

    I've been to St. Louis a number of times and a high school friend of mine lives out in Washington, MO. He does about 90 miles each day for work. I will say, I do like Ted Drews, Imos Pizza and toasted ravioli. Where I'm at, there's even a Pep Boys service only place that's by me. It used to be...
