• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

    The point we disagree on is whether or not this is a scam. However, I too won't be pulling any money out of my pocket until I can go to my local Elio dealer, do a test drive, etc. Again, I would love to be wrong about them, and I wish them the best of luck. Skeptical they can make a go of it...

    The 7.5M is not plant start up money, but outright plant ownership. As I understand the situation, they can start up the plant now, but if they fail to pay the money in 30 months, they may be booted from the premises, and the plant torn down for scrap. Keep in mind, the earnest money that...

    My opinion, which I failed to make clear, is that I do not think Elio is a scam. Rather, I think it is something worse: A company whose aspirations are too grand, and thus dooming the company to failure. I would love to see them prove me wrong by making a go of it.

    I've done a bunch of reading (I won't bother with the links), and it's more complicated than that. The parrish (county in the rest of the USA), is effectively the second bidder on the plant. Elio has 30 months to come up with 7.5 million to complete the purchase. Failing that, then the plant...

    Actually, they do have a factory: http://www.racertrust.org/News/11185 There are several other articles about the plant purchase I found with a quick google search. Now, someone did try to use Elio Motors to run a scam on Kickstarter, but Elio Motors complained, and Kickstarter shut down the scam.

    The Five Wheel Gang is Planning a Ride - Test run, Oct 5th; Main ride, Spring 2014

    The Birth of "The Stomach of Washington" Shel_TK grew up in the Vancouver/Portland area. Down in that area, there is a local fast food chain called "Burgerville USA." She preferred it to all other fast food joints. About a decade or so, they switched to local, season ingredients. That made them...

    We Had A Great Time As we were riding along, Shel kept saying, "This is so cool!" She thought it was extra awesome when we fell in behind the H.O.G. Thanks for letting me tag along too. It was nice to be out on the road with the group. Also, as lil rabbit said, thanks to Clem! Lauren
