This Elio thing reminds me more and more of The Dale as I read about it.

And that, folks, is a REALLY crazy story if you've never heard it.

We have the original tube-and-fabric motorcycle-powered concept, and one of the three Dale mock-ups on display at the Petersen. I kept reminding my friend about the Dale when he expressed his enthusiasm for the Elio, and told him that if he were ever promised a car by a large, manish-looking woman, to demand his deposit back.

The Elio prototype was on display at a mall in Jacksonville, Fl. a few years ago. We took a look at it and decided then it would never see the light of day. One look at the inadequate ground clearance told you this thing is designed for pot hole free roads. I know of two locals that put down deposits.
