Most things look strange when you are looking out through a camera. LOL That is a great shot. Thank you for sharing. Also welcome from southern Oregon, Msyko. I hope you enjoy the adventure of this ride to Elio land. There is a lot of information, speculation, crazy ideas, great ideas and laughter on this forum. A plus is our staff is tops. So read and dream away. Enjoy the trip to Elio ownership. :-) Z

Msyko, Zelio just a little bit faster than pretty much covered all the good times here but I also wanted to welcome you and wish you a good time on this forum!

Thanks for the great perspective as I know some members have been wondering how the view looks out the narrow windshield.

From the photograph it seems the A-pillars are really thick with large blindspots, how was it really from a driver's perspective?

I suspect that will be influenced by the "driver's perspective", no pun intended. Individual drivers will perceive that view differently. I have been driving my car for 13 1/2 years and have recently noticed my blind spot in back is getting bigger so I have to be that much more aware. I suspect that is definitely due to age. Obviously the spot itself has not changed but my perception of it has. I am also more aware of other drivers who find that blind spot and stay there. They were passing me so why did they "stop in for a visit" in a spot I can't see them in? Go figure! LOL :-) Z
