This Is Going To Be The Death Of Us!

Basic courtesy and info, yes, keys to the office, NO!
I put in 1K NR and am happy to get what news I have, don't need every little detail when it happens, just enjoying the ride.

I weakly disagree with your strong disagreement. We've just bought into a place in line, not a seat at their engineering/marketing/production table. I'm thinking we'd have to add some zeros in order to get that privilege.

I put six zero's in front of my 1000 all in and it didn't make a bit of difference....
In all seriousness, I am sure there is a lot of back room work and the last thing Elio wants to do is release info that is not 100% accurate, I am sure they are doing a lot of work, but just not ready to release those timelines and milestones since they are not 100% complete. Nothing is worse than having to publicly backtrack on a news release.

Although... If we all banned together and went to them as a unified group... I wonder how much investment we all have combined? Then again, just from the discussions on here, we don't seem to agree on much, so the debate on which side the filler spout should be on would leave the ELIO engineers laughing and rolling their eyes at us while we try to create a common front.

Which is why I'm not putting any of my hard earned money down up front on one of their vehicles.

Our Vehicles!! The world is full of "Their".

Amen, CompTrex, I have no doubt that there has been a lot of in the think tank over posts here.

I disagree strongly. When they graciously accepted my $1,000 it became my business as well.

They accepted your money for what?
A PLACE IN LINE......
Read the contract, where did they say they would take you by the hand and walk you through every step of the process?

NO ONE expects to be taken by the hand for anything. All I'm saying is that for the last several years EM hasn't kept ANY of their predictions. I can tell by your number that you wouldn't know this yet but you will.

You can tell nothing by my number.....I have been following Elio for several years, waited for a chance to take the wife to see it before we went all in. Understood they have missed predictions, after all these are predictions made by men and situations out of men's control do and will come up and we will have to expect and live with them and there is nothing that we can do about it.

Whoa, reign in yer hosses! Do you realize you said "for the last several years EM hasn't kept ANY of their predictions."?! Since when in any business are predictions of any sort considered anything than the best guess that can be made barring any unforeseen circumstances? This is a start up company, with a first time skipper, trying to get all the ducks in a row. If there is any other modern automobile company, in the same position, able to be more accurate and able to control the circumstances of planning/production/investments any better than Paul E and the whole investment/management/engineering team bring them forward with documentation. Tesla? They started in 2003, first car 2008. 5 years. Nope, sorry, the complaint doesn't wash. Relax, Enhance your calm Citizen!
