$7300 Final Price

[Jambe]

That's even better when you consider that we've had 9% inflation since 2011!

I wish Social Security saw it that way!

 

[Bamdalam]

well, I guess that's the "Whole kit and Caboodle", or Kaboodle??

Yep. The lock (hammer mechanism), stock (wooden gun stock), and barrel (of course, a rifle barrel). Everything you need to go get a mess of squirrels besides powder and lead balls.

Yeah, tell me about it...

Seth, I think you have it backwards -- the point of the exercise is to convince DOE that the market demand for the car is real. It isn't to weed out the not-fully committed, but to identify those who ARE fully committed, and provide that data to DOE.

I HOPE THE DOE DOESN'T FIND OUT I HAVE BEEN UNEMPLOYED SINCE SEPTEMBER .

Why would that make a difference?

Why would that make a difference?

IF THEY KNEW THERE IS NO WAY I CAN AFFORD 4 ELIOS ,
THEY MIGHT SEE ME AS SOMEHOW , UNCOMMITTED .

THE REST OF YOU ARE TIRED OF WAITING BUT I FEEL LIKE I AM RUNNING OUT OF TIME .
CARE FOR MY WIFE HAS TAKEN PRECEDENT OVER EMPLOYMENT OVER THE LAST YEAR .

WE WILL GET THROUGH THIS BUT SAVINGS ARE FAR FROM UNLIMITED AND MY $428/MONTH
INCOME DOESN'T GO VERY FAR .

I WILL FIND A WAY TO MAKE IT WORK , I ALWAYS DO .

David, sorry to hear. Our thoughts are with ya buddy. God speed.

David, we all have our own burden to bear but deciding to stay home and care for your wife instead of finding work to be able to make ends meet must be a very difficult decision to make But a necessary one.

Our thoughts and prayers are with you and your wife.

I liked the following excerpt:

"Because Elio Motors has applied for a $185 million Advanced Technology Vehicles Manufacturing (ATVM) loan from the DOE, the company is now seeking the necessary binding purchase commitments to meet the recent change in loan criteria."

It is a simple statement of why EM is seeking the binding commitments.
It is the ATVM's idea, not EM idea.
