It won’t take that long.

Which is exactly the reason we are to use the term “climate change” instead.

You incorrectly used the term “global warming” which is easily rebuted, hence, the reason it is now called “climate change”. Al Gore would like to have a word with you...

Elio started with outrageous claims to hook people and now they can’t make their fantasies a reality. Their MSRP and mileage claims that were far superior to a motorcycle should have tipped you off.

You’ve “heard” of people outside the company driving an Elio? My brother has a friend who has a cousin who knows a guy that has a friend that heard the same thing.

I was a mechanic in the 70s-80s and worked on many of these. I’ll just come out and say that I HATED these cars. Everything was tinny about them. The sheet metal would buckle if you leaned on them, the starters always sounded terrible and when you closed a door it seemed like it might fall off its hinges.

Wait, they cheated the US out of 2.5 BILLION but were fined 500 million. That’s a prety good return on any investment don’t you think?

You’re covered in bubble wrap aren’t you?

The reverse motor is the silver item above the red arrow. It drives the shaft with the traction drive against the tire.

I have said from the first ad that Elio would never come close to the targets they claimed. For those of you keeping score, Elio ads originally STATED 84 MPG and $7,450. Both of those figures are simply not possible in any person’s reality. Now their ads slip in the words “up to” and “targeted” which pretty much opens…

Sooooo

Read the headline and thought it was going to mention how the electrical draw caused the alternator load to slow the car.

This bike would be incredibly boring if it wasn’t so unattractive.

I had a first year XL250 Motosport and loved it. Put a big bore 305 kit in it and ported the head. Wheelied everywhere.

You know how to MONITOR the manifold, you just don’t know how to MANAGE the manifold. And that’s really the most important part of the manifold. Anybody can just monitor ‘em.

As a 17 year track day instructor I could see how conservative Chris was even on near the end of the first lap. One of the instructors I work with has modified the fuel tank with handles which makes a huge difference. I have a spare fuel tank for my R6 I should consider revising.

It doesn’t.

The “$16,000" Leaf you point out appears to be a lease only, not a purchase.
