I do like this idea and hope it becomes reality soon only for the sole reason to extend my independence to live alone. I'm 66 and hate thinking in a few years depending on taxi's and buses to get me to the grocery, doctor, dentist.

WooHoo! Now just two steps out the door instead of 5, alright! My deal was having the seatbelt set up as if you were on the passenger's side of a regular car. So when you get in you would pull it from right to left to get the click. This would get the retracted seatbelt out of the way for...

Still waiting. I don't swing by the threads too often so up until last month I was still plotting ways to clean out my garage in prep for my new Elio this fall. Now I've got until next summer. Maybe longer. Joeker88 on YouTube, Joe Cabrera, deserves a hug. He's like the cruise director on a...

OK yeah I got the email and read through, but came up confused. So am here hoping for clarity. I think the part I'm confused about is the $1,000 I put in a few years back. So if I do this additional commitment, because me dropping 1K years ago just doesn't say I want the car bad enough, it...

Anything with the Jerry Falwell imprimatur on it I would run like hell for the hills.

Saw it on YouTube. Meh* As long as Elio doesn't replace all those Yugo jokes from the 80's Imma be OK. Example: Q: What do you call a Yugo at the top of a big hill? A: A miracle.

Oh that is most excellent news, thanks. :thumb:

The seatbelt thing stuck out like a sore thumb. When you have the option to have it come over from the non-door side and buckle on the door side you get two obvious benefits. 1. when you're not using it access to the backseat would not also involve negotiating and wrestling with a hanging seat...

I saw a Elio for the first time in Jacksonville at a mall last September. It was huge inside sitting in the drivers seat. My inseam is 30" so if and when there's a passenger in the back they would have room as well. In a lot of cars my hair is saying hello to the ceiling fabric. Delightfully...

You know, I was seriously looking into getting their little enclosed trike with electric assist. Put a deposit down and was totally excited about it, but in talking with the folks who build them it became obvious that my weight, it's always something, my weight would be a problem. It's mainly...

See, y'all had me wondering what the heck is a slingshot, so I googled it, (what in the world did we do before google!). Jazzi, but my wallet can't take a hit that large. Prefer the enclosed bubble safe from the elements that we will all soon know as our Elio. Maybe not too soon, but Christmas...

I was thinking, that the game would be greatly tilted toward success if there actually were Elio's out and about running up and down the streets and roads of good old US of A. So possibly this could be one facet why the extra bonus, and also a token toward keeping the core owners group engaged...

April 24th, 2014, since I parted with the $1,000.00. So that puts me in the 70% group as well. $1,700.00 credit on $6,800.00 leaves me scraping up $5,100.00 to make the base car. I'm leaning heavily toward a moon roof. So more scraping I shall do even. Hey, wasn't there a big brouhaha over...

I don't mean to sound insensitive but some people just get psycho hyper crazy about money and amounts of money, be it $100 or $1,000. Like the very beating of their heart is dependent upon what that money represents. Just looking through the web under Elio, I do believe there is a faction out...

OMG, The beginnings of a Novella Erotica and with pictures!

My letter was a really pretty email from The Elio Team. Just basically confirming the undercurrent of what we all have been hearing about the push back for production from the last quarter of this year to sometime in the first half of next year. Quarter non-specific. Lots of working parts to...

Yep, just got my letter as well. I don't feel like carrying a torch or a pitchfork. I'll just wait until April 2016 for my 2016 Elio. More time to get a higher pile on the money. Although I do extend my sympathy to the folks who were using duct tape and glue to keep their clunker running...

Ross I can SO relate! My one and only brother drives a Dodge Ram and his wife runs the Jeep Cherokee. I'm dropping cash on my Elio as well. The back up camera and electronic dials don't sway me. Keeping it pretty basic, although I am toying with a glass roof. I've never had one and have always...

My family all think I'm crazy anyway, but believe me the feeling goes both ways. If it don't have at least 6 cylinders and 4X4 it's not road worthy for this crowd. Perpetual 5 years of payments is the only way to go. I just shake my head and accept I have a wealth of knuckle draggers in my tree.
