Elio Addict
I'm asking about an Elio EV not to impress anyone. Why would you make assumptions and generalize about why some people like the idea of an Elio EV alternative. My reasoning is that I may have a quiet high performance Elio and help to guarantee future oil reserves to enable your Elio ICE fill ups. Consideration for your needs and the environment. Totally unselfish logic.
I bet there are many low income people that support the development of alternative energy vehicles and hope to afford and drive one someday as EVs move more mainstream. I respect the fact that you are not one of them. Please give us a break on our reasons for going Electric.
I may have to settle on the Morgan EV3 while I wait on the electrified Elio.

Rickb,
As you know from my previous posts, I live in an area where EVs are almost useless. You appear to take personal offense anytime someone makes a generalized post that is negative to EVs. Where I take umbrage to the EV movement is that my tax dollars are being used to subsidize something which I can neither use nor afford and which has no benefit, real or potential, to me. If EV advocates want to pay the full cost of the vehicle without subsidies, go for it. If you want people like me to subsidize your vehicle I will stand against it.
This is not personal. It is my tax dollars.
