I like your trike, I hadn't even heard of those but probably because they are rarer in the US then 1971 Plymouth Hemi Cuda convertables. This thing begs and Elio comparison, sorry! From what I can tell this must have cost more then $7000. Don't get me wrong, I think it looks great and is worth it. What I don't see is how Elio can enclose the cabin, built it for you, add A/C and heat, a power window, use all new drivetrains, get better economy and sell it for less. Elio's claims I'm sure are hurting the company that is making the Exo. With all their advertising and free press they are poisoning the marketplace for real manufacturers out there.
