Yeah, something is not adding up.



Good point. It is strange, because IMO there won't be more than 70k reservations by March 2016.

However...
Jeff, to hurl us even deeper into this mystery...
Listen to the clip again.
Regarding marketing, PE says:

"I think we'll have like a two year window where we don't know what the hell to do.
I believe we will outsell the plant before we open up.
We're capacitizing for 250,000 units a year.
I believe we will take that many reservations.
So... you have the year sold, you have a marketing budget and you have nothing to sell because...
So what do you do with that time span?"

My intention is certainly not to cry havoc and loose the dogs of war, but...
You're right... two years from our current position in the time-space continuim is April 2017.
Hmmm.

Bob Dylan-"Things they are a Changing", but think "Blowing in The Wind"!

I think we should keep the Bob Dylan Song Titles related to EM: Hard Times in New York Town, Money Blues, Motorpsycho Nightmare, and Maybe Someday.

"Pumps don't work cause the vandles took the handles". Guess I'll just add 500 to my spot in line, or apply for a job at Elio so mine will be free.

Don't see this posted anywhere on here yet. Paul was a little awkward as usual, but I thought he handled it well. Good information and came off relatively confident with good answers for most of the questions and concerns.

I came away from the press conference with a great impression... Sure some of his jokes didn't land, but he kept the jokes to a minimum lol...

Piece of trivia -THE pump- is located near Bard College- (upstate NY- ), Very expensive tuition back then, had it not been for my kid's scholarship I never would know where the pump is!!
