    I requested his review recently; he was obviously very receptive. I’ll assume others might have as well.

    I’m 6’5″ (36/37″ inseam, ~240lbs).

    I’m “taking Steve at his word” that we will fit comfortably whether it be headroom or legroom and as such, both carefully & adequately considered from design through to final execution ????.

    I think that grassroots & social media, as is being done now, is the way to go until they get the numbers up ie. preorders into substantial production levels.

    Word of mouth along with actual “presence of product” will help huge.

    Timing is everything!!

    If you invest, say $100,000. into shares then moving up the line doesn’t offend me in such a circumstance, offering or instance.

    I could buy into the logic.

    Buy two or more Aptera and also move up. ????????

    Priority to all fully loaded, fully optioned & accessorized versions too.

    YES, I’m stoking the fire in this thread.

    Oh, that AND… first priority to ALL Canadian preorders regardless of everything else as well. ???? Bonus points just because we’re “good people”, eh?!

    Then I woke up; tears on my pillow.

    I think their green “glogo” looks good; unique, identifiable & represents new age electric with its luminescence. It’s my opinion, of course.

    My vote too, “absolutely”.

    If the laws aren’t ready upon release, the change will still be forthcoming. Get ahead of the curve. Reminds me of autopilot hardware in preparation thereof. There’s no difference in my mind. Just do it!

    Let’s hope that is their plan. Elon has suggested something “similar-ish” would happen with the Cybertruck regarding mirrors.

    1) Sweet (look et al)

    2) Efficiency

    3) Range

    My #1 essentially intended to represent everything posted by everyone. It’s all encompassing to me, in one word.

      Finally,

      The last one is the Winnipeg (NHL) Jets logo. It’s based on the Royal Canadian Air Force’s Canadian Forces (RCAF) logo also shown

    For whatever it’s worth, this kinda thing is done with some trailer companies (available to show, share experiences, answer questions) like Oliver Travel Trailers (they sell direct) and I believe Escape does something similar too.

    There is a Road & Track Magazine app in the Google Playstore that allows you to buy their digital editions. I just did.

    Assuming similar in the Apple equivalent.

    Aptera apparently is using the Sunpower Maxeon solar cells.

    This link (& its product line) may provide an answer (or multiple varied ones) to us all.

    One’s past &/or mistakes are not to be forgotten but learned from, and as such, remembered; even shared.

    QUESTION: How do you not make errors &/or mistakes in business or in LIFE?

    ANSWER: Consider oneself perfect (“Narcissistally DILLUSIONAL”) & an all knowing superior being or creature; do nothing innovative &/or of consequence whilst avoiding all risk in the process. The special, the chosen you (or few) & B.S.?

    Take credit for all others successes and deny any/all blame (a.k.a. relevant knowledge) whilst being flawless &/or clueless. I call it DUHNIAL.

    A little vulnerability & humility is good for the soul and for growth.

    Cool.

    Anyone translate?

    “Issue” essentially focused on a bunch of the new EV industry movers or up & comers.

    Nothing particularly new for information in the Aptera “article”.

    Essentially they went to Aptera, had escorted rides and expressed their appreciation of Aptera’s intended goals, approach & vision as well as its uniquely organic purity, fluid lines, its overall look & cohesive execution. They also used the words “distinctly anthropomorphic” to describe the alpha prototypes.

    They spent time discussing Aptera’s background; iterational & HISTORY, founder backgrounds & basic info., philosophy whilst recognizing their hiring practices ie. young aerospace engineers & graduates.

    They seemed impressed with the onsite activities, technical competencies & overall coordination occurring onsite.

    They were impressed with the enthusiasm of Aptera’s followers & those with orders in the production queue. They talked to a couple of “freedom seekers” who showed up unnannounced to see the prototypes as reservation holders themselves. One was a retired airline pilot from N.D. & others also showed up unnannounced from Arizona & California.

    When R&T went for the ride along in SOL they acknowledged everything looked promising but certainly not yet a release candidate on a number of things like fit, rattles & ride. They did seem impressed with the acceleration and vehicle agility.

    They said the vehicle dropped jaws on the street.

    They discussed service & non dealer delivery strategies that we already know.

    Steve Anthony confirmed an aggressive intent of producing 5,000 Aptera in 2022.

    In a brief nutshell, that’s it. I do suggest buying a printed copy or an electronic one as I did. There’s more in there than just Aptera and I’m not through it yet.

    Biggest part of the article really was the strong headline as much of what’s in the article is a repeat for those of us here that already know, & follow, Aptera:

    HERE COMES THE SUN

    AMONG GREEN-CAR ENTHUSIASTS, THE SOLAR-POWERED APTERA MIGHT BE THE MOST ANTICIPATED VEHICLE IN THE WORLD. WILL IT EVER SEE THE LIGHT OF DAY?
