It seemed pretty evident to me that Edison2 was a money grab. They also developed in wheel suspension that appeared to be a money grab; just trying to market the patent and sell it to some sucker willing to buy it.

Maybe there is a market for Elio in Florida. If I wanted a small crappy car, I'd buy a Smart.
