Third point of advice is, don’t buy a house in an HOA neighborhood. There’s nothing less American than signing over your freedom to some no-name committee of neighborhood snitches. HOAs can fuck right off.

Home Owners’ Association rules are not laws. You don’t have to follow them. You don’t have to pay the fines. They have to sue you to even try and enforce their dumb power complex. Buy the race truck.

The biggest thing for me that the article overlooks is that electric allows you to “fill up” at home, during off-peak hours. So I’m not sure there needs to be a 1:1 replacement ratio.

Obamacare has major flaws. The costs are not sustainable. Trump SHOULD work with Democrats as well as Republicans to fix them.

Yeah but on the flip side, this is Jalopnik. Any time there are politics involved, rights of opinion/speech only apply to 1 side of the argument. Everyone else is racist / bigot / supremacist / bad because they share the other opinion.

This is ignorant and irrelevant. Machine guns were banned in 1986. The problem here is the perpetrator. Let’s make his illegal machine gun even more illegal! That’ll stop the next one for sure! I truly believe if someone wants to commit terrorism they will find a way to do so. You guys can go ahead and continue to…

when a car is used to run through a crowd you should tell us the congresscritters who took money from the auto industry too.

A joint is just weed.

The whole idea of rating passengers goes against the basics principles of customer service. I can understand blacklisting truly dangerous/problematic passengers or giving incentives for frequent riders, but nobody deserves to be treated differently just because they made a request that the driver did not like. If…

Masochism.

Emasculation.

So, to summarize:

Pretty sure it’s Moller.

Excellent read and very informative! I usually skim over things related to Elio because I never really had any faith that they were going to bring their car to market. Ideas like theirs seldom come to market.

I’m kind of wondering if electric would have been the way to go also. You’d think they could have got it to market faster, because IIRC, the engine development was costly and slowed them down considerably, but whatever.

I have made peace with the fact that I will never get anything for my deposit. Been waiting 5 years now.

Came here to make an obligatory Monorail! Monorail! Monorail! joke, but was awed by the depth of this reporting. Best thing ever written about Elio. Any lawyer with a little cut and paste effort could turn it into the body of a class action lawsuit.

Moon shuttle rides start in Dec 2018. I’m taking non-refundable deposits up ‘till launch day. Just send $1000 via Paypal to afoolandhismoneyaresoon@altavista.net.

They should have pitched electric versions from the start. Might have received more funding.
