One excited old dog here from Central Washington. MY # is 1437 and I'm counting the days til I can pick my new Elio up and drive it home. I plan on flying down to Louisiana and driving it up to Illinois, then Ohio, then Az and then back home.
I recently had a 29 Mercedes SSK replica that was a real attention grabber, but I think the Elio will out do it in a hearbeat.
I like being different, lol. I own and ride a 2001 Honda Valkyrie, 6 cylinders and a ton of chrome on her. Not a Harley look alike so I don't see myself coming and going often (although my neighbor has a 97). Also have a BMW K1200LTE, which is a fine bike with everything but a kitchen sink, but I usually prefer riding the Valk.

Hi and welcome from Oregon, young man, olddog1946. It is obvious from your magic number that you have been following the Elio for some time. Congratulations and I am glad you are joining us. This is a hot bed of activity when it comes to Elio discussions, speculation, facts, creativity, angst, impatience, and source of entertainment and pleasure. Don't hesitate to ask questions because in all likelihood someone in this eccentric and eclectic group will have an answer. Whether it is the answer you are looking for, well only you can decide that. I hope this forum helps add to the adventure of this exciting journey to Elio ownership. Next year in our Elios! :-) Z

Thanky thanky. I just found this site today, but have been following the Elio closely, so am pretty much up to date on the goings on. And like the rest of you CRAZY people, anxiously awaiting my call to arms. This kind of reminds me when in the service, time was slow slow slow, but after my retirement it seemed like I'd only been in 2 weeks, not 23 years.

olddog1946, Welcome to the ElioOwners.com forum from Atlanta, GA! :)

Glad you are excited about this neat little vehicle. We are glad to have you here. You have joined a very diverse group of people from all over the country who really enjoy discussing everything there is to know about this interesting vehicle. I hope you enjoy your time here reading about and/or discussing all there is to know about Elio Motors.

We have a survey we like reservation holders to fill out if they wish as it really helps us visualize the growing numbers and locations of future Elio Owners. For now information visit this link: http://www.elioowners.com/threads/elio-reservation-map-and-survey.1129/

As you mentioned your time in the service we also have a thread for our many current and former service members to introduce themselves: http://www.elioowners.com/threads/military-service.1118/

If you ever happen to have any issues while on this forum please be sure to notify a staff member as we are here to help. :cool:
