What Can You Fit In An Elio

Since I will be doing all of my own PM, and since I am not a factory authorized service center , they would probably void my warranty anyway.

That's a misconception. Warranties can't be voided by having service done at a private shop, or even under the tree in your yard. You just need to prove (parts receipts, etc) that all the needed services were done according to the maintenance schedule.

Better hope none of the warranty work is in the rear. It's usually pretty obvious when bolts have been messed with recently.

Good Point Edward!

Is there a reference from EM on that voiding the warranty?

Good Question!

Read your warranty first before make any decision!

Read your Warranty first before doing any modification!

What fits? I figure one full grocery cart load - with careful packing. (seat down). I'm thinking a pair of sub bags (small duffels) will fit in the trunk for weekend cruises. If I need to carry a second passenger, I think I've got an old saddle around here somewhere that ought to fit over the trunk lid. . . Yippee-ky-yay!

Not really. Her line of thought has several angles. First, she doesn't believe it will ever be built.
Second, she can't get past the "motorcycle" tag, bulking "autocycle" in with it. Therefore, she won't drive a motorcycle!o_O
Third, her Husband never insisited on anything new before, prefering to buy something to put his greasy hands on and turn it into something respectful for the road.
Fourth, she really doesn't like the "backseat only" thing. She doesn't want to ride back there (yet), and she doesn't want me back there peeking over her shoulder.
Five, when I bought her her van, she really liked riding higher than she was used to before. She doesn't think she'll see as well in an Elio. She complains when riding in my POS Neon now even!
Six, her purse really will fill up a lot of space in my Elio!!

I've been happily married for 3 years, I've actually been married for 37 years, sometimes it's only four or five minutes at a time, but it all adds up.

You are very correct.

I will need to fit a wife and her purse and 2 lunch boxes. Might have to put the wife on a diet.

Ah, simultaneously eliminating one lunchbox!

Are you suicidal or have a death wish? Better hope she doesn't read this........
