Unintended Benefits Of Elio Ownership...

A personal benefit for me. Elio is allowing me the opportunity to for the first time in a Long time consider buying an American car again. After being burned by Many big 3 purchases I have been loyal to Honda and they have Yet to let me down or leave me stranded. I look forward to the opportunity to buy american again.
This will be the first made in the U.S car I am buying since my 1990 Dodge Caravan that came with the famous 7/70 protection blew a transmission at 73,000 miles.

I went to a see "Born Free" at "The Jet" Drive-in(it was close to Maxwell AFB) as a child that was too young to enjoy it. But before I got out of high school The Jet only showed XXX rated films...I don't know if anyone ever enjoyed one of those films...or even if they bothered to change the movie, ever.

Parking them back to back and staggered in your driveway will make it so you can park 6-8 of them in a standard driveway.

I'll tell you, I think this unintended benefits must be a man thing because I am the only woman who has posted on it. You have all come up with some very funny things but all I can think of is I am going to have to put my purse and my cane in the back seat. And my book, and my cell phone, and . . . . . . . One thing nice though, I won't get lonely in the front seat by myself because everyone will be watching this cute little car coming down the road and waving at me. And I can wave from either window! Or both at stop signs and lights. That will do. :) Z
No rear view mirror, so you can't put on your make up while holding the wheel with your knees!

I suspect you are too young to remember when it used to be the rage to cram as many people into a vehicle as possible trying to beat the Guinness Book of World Records. Of course the vehicle couldn't move once it was loaded. LOL :) Z
Back in the days even before MOST of us.. they had what was called the mother-in-law seat...

Now they will have to hold the steering with their knees, a mirror in one hand, a coffee in another, make-up with one foot and that leaves one last foot for texting. May need to use cruise control, but definitely possible. Probably need to be pretty limber too.
