What Is Elio Stock Trading For Today?

[Rob Croson]

They put gas in that dam car? Sure, why not !

No. It's an electric car. They are calculating a "gas mileage" based on the amount of rocket fuel it took to get it into its current orbit. The rocket burned 128,000 gallons of RP1 to establish the roadster's current orbit.

Thanks for the corrections. I did mean $75 barrel instead of per gallon. Still, the article is indicating that gas prices may not change much, up or down, in the foreseeable future.

As a side note, I find it interesting that the supporters of Tesla because of environmental considerations, are not complaining to Elon Musk about all his rockets that have gone up or all the future ones that are planned. Look at the fireballs coming out of them and tell me that that's not pollution! I think it's somewhat hypocritical. I also wonder if fire alarms for Tesla's would be a good business to get into.

You have got to be kidding...
SpaceX is one of the economic and environmentally friendly space program because it uses REUSABLE ROCKETS. You do realise that previous multibillion dollar agencies just shot up their rockets up, only to let them fall into the ocean or disinegrate in the atmosphere. Not very environmentally friendly there. Don't think that Elon Musk is "environmentally friendly" because his company designed an attractive EV where other companies failed, and also don't put an entire company's business model behind either.

I look at what Musk is doing, is just pushing technology. From what I see it's working and what we really need here in the US is someone giving us that kick in the pants to keep moving forward. The car and space industry seemed to me to be stuck in a phase where technology was almost at a standstill and it was all about the finances. Musk is moving it along and actually giving the current generation of kids in school that they too can get into the sciences and technology. If it takes a salesman like Musk to make it look cool, I'm OK with that.

Maybe, there will always be the family that thinks one vehicle is enough to do everything, and as we all know, that's not true.
You will still need the "family car" and the "weekend vehicle" and the commuter car for the week.
Elio will fit the commuter car, but it will never be the Do All and End All vehicle for everybody.
As Paul says "it's the --and-- vehicle"
Keeping them low priced is a strong selling point for them; the mileage and small size fits them too.
But they will never be the $30K do all vehicle.

The point I was trying to make was that the AND vehicle become necessary, rather than a luxury, at that price. $30k divided by $75 means that the break even is a savings of only 400 gallons over your primary vehicle. At $7500, it is only 100 gallons and the demand would soar driving the price up to at least $30000.

I case any one is wondering:

elio
$4.49 0.09 2.1%
tsla
$347.5 -14.7 -4.0%

Hmmm Elio at 4 and a half, and I bought in when it was less then half that

 

[Maurtis]

Unfortunately I also bought in at almost twice, triple, and quadruple that. When it gets back to $12, then I will do a happy dance I will even video my Elio Happy Dance. Definitely looking forward to that!

 

[LillyMayPatterson #1685 & #5648]

I will break even at $9.79. I'll be thrilled when it gets there but I won't sell. But, I will put on a happy dance.

 

[Johnny Acree]

My break even is $7.83 on 2100 shares

 

[RSchneider]

I really want to see the volume go up. Right now, it's too low.

Yes, Volume is low. I just figure people (me) has spend what they wanted and are sitting on it. Plus in a month or so we should be hearing about the coins going on the market from the big guys. That is when things are going to move. IMO
Johnny, Are you going to do a dance at $7.83 ... and post it?
