Does anyone think in the future that franchises will be offered just like Honda motorcycles did? I remember back they turned this into a empire.

I don't think they are planning that far into the future yet.
They probably have a goals they want to meet, but like anything else, it is all subject to change.
Right now the entire focus is getting the production line running, and making money so they can have a future.

cars for awhile. Your right lets get the production going ASAP.

They have to create/install the steel skin panels first.

I don't see why they couldn't do a lot of the powertrain, ABS, traction control and mechanical systems tuning without the steel panels.
Those things that they can do with the E1a, they are doing. Everything needed doing by that supplier, basically.

I agree but may be until they get all the approvals to start production up it's probably not cost effective. But they are going to train new people for the
build. I would think they will start in November some time plus time for the supply of parts on sight.

Slinches; I just got a call from HR. They're wanting you to report to Detroit your findings on those ABS proof testings of yours.

How will cruise control and the manual transmission work? You really need an automatic to make full use of this cruise control as intended, right?
