I'm retired but still want my elio. I was doing some financial analysis and realize I still spend almost $200/month on gas. If I had my elio I'd be spending about $40/month. Sigh... retired but too young for ss so I'm not even on a fixed income; I'm on no income

I don't think it would do much for seeing behind you but I think such a mirror would be a great addition if you wanted to talk with your passenger.

I have no problems or regrets when others ask me about Elio. Investing in Elio was a bit of a long shot but I believed, and still do believe, that when Elio comes to be that it will be greater than just transportation for myself. I whole heartedly believe that it's low cost and high mileage will...

Dang... where did I put that aluminum foil hat :) A bit more info. I am accessing the site using chrome on a different computer and all is well (Secure connection). I'm thinking a full scan of my other computer is in order and then maybe start comparing certificate information between the two...

Thanks for the feedback. I tried the clearing of both images and cookies. I am indeed using chrome and when I click on the "Not secure" from the previous image I get the information below. This seems to confirm that I too am seeing a valid certificate. When I follow the "Learn more" link...

So did the cert expire or something? I always get a "Not secure" message when I access this site.

I'm the innocent bystander Somehow I got stuck Between the rock and the hard place And I'm down on my luck And I'm down on my luck And I'm down on my luck Now Paul is hiding in Honduras He is a desperate man Send lawyers, guns and money The shit has hit the fan

If I had kids, I certainly wouldn't buy them a car. My dad didn't buy me a car and all my money that I earned went to the one big check I wrote for my first year in college :(. I do think if a kid wants a car that they should have a lot of skin in the game for that car but frankly that is not...

Don't any of you remember when Honda civics came out and parents bought them up as cheap cars for their kids? These were from a proven company but they were a new design and certainly not by any means engineered to be the safest vehicle on the road. The same issues of size of vehicle were common...

The original Iron Duke was a solid engine tried and true. In the Fiero the oil capacity was reduced and because many owners didn't do regular maintenance or pay attention to oil level that lead to the demise of many of those engines and even the car when thrown rods etc. resulted in engine...

9 for me of which I know at least 1 of which was actively removed from the forum, more than 1/2 haven't been around since 2014, one since 2015, and one since 2016. There are also some that the forum didn't tell me the last time they were seen so I wonder if they were removed as well. I try to...

And Elio Motors wouldn't have brought American jobs or sourced largely north american content if they had. My wife was reading a post from a millennial to me that had most of the whiny stuff we old farts like to complain about but it also had a good observation and desires that are indeed...

EM may have miss-calculated or possibly over spent as a result of having to redo suspension and move to steel body panels. Also being $8 million under what they asked for could certainly have impacted their ability to create even more Es. Although I remain concerned about the lack of news...

I've seen tire pressure caps that seem like they would provide a very quick means of monitoring your tire pressure and cost very little. Something like these...

OH MY GOD!!!! - strike that comment Updating my post. I went to https://farm.ewg.org/index.php and saw millions going to some of my neighbors and lost it. I looked further and the subsidies being reported were cumulative. When I drilled down further to what was actually received in a given year...

OK, I admit that I choose to stay blissfully ignorant of many of the intricacies of EVs simply because I like gas powered vehicles. Add to that the many conversations about battery replacement costs and range anxiety and I found that the articles I posted above seemed to support what I've been...

I'm not sure which thread this is best for but it seemed like this would be a good one to revive. Google now gave me a link to an article that quotes the chevy bolt owners manual as saying that the battery could lose up to 40% of its charge capacity by the end of its 5 year warranty period. The...

You may be correct that once the Solo is crash tested that it may be safe but for now I have seen little discussion, much less any modeling or engineering to indicate any attempt to be as safe as the elio. All I have seen are comments that it is safer than a 2 wheel motorcycle. Can you point to...
