Elio Crowdfunding

[JEBar]

my hope is the few folks who tried to sabotage the offering have backed off now that the $25M has been surpassed .... if they are still at it, I think calling them haters would be clearly justified .... I'm really looking forward to hearing the end numbers as to how the pledges translate to capital

My brothers.
Some of you need better hobbies! This constantly looking at these numbers is going to kill you. I did that for a while with stocks. Drove me nuts!
That being said, keep the information flow coming!

It's the only data point that's active, if there were any news ( shape of the gas cap for example ) we would be focusing (obsessing) on that, but right now all we have is a magic number that keeps going up, it's something to watch (ooooOO! look, a distracting shinny object)

JEBar, I am rallying in this victory. Imagine their disappointment for once. Poor John. And it's my team winning.... as it always does.

Well, It's this or shovel out the goat stall. It is much cooler sitting here on the sofa with all my friends.

Mucking out stalls and postings on the internet are actually quite similar...
They are both full of crap half the time...

Yeppers, It is fun to post the numbers here, and calc the progress! now $25,461,650 So 12k in 1 hour? That's pretty close to the range of 5-10k/hr.
I'm on home projects today, so I have a good chance to break my OCD habits. For today at least?

Quote-
The Elio Motors project looks pretty sound however and destined to be successful. After all, Elio claims (on the project’s homepage) that more than $18 million worth in car reservations have already been made, so investors already can expect big sales numbers. The new car will cost only $6,800 by eliminating unnecessary accessories and keeping the mechanics pretty simple. Working together with top suppliers, such as Bosch, Continental, Aisin, Lear and CooperTires, among others, the pitch seems to be a safe investment.
