What's Up With Earthroamer?

[pangaea]

So I was driving up I-25 just north of Denver earlier this week and I saw a gaggle of Earthroamers parked outside of an industrial building just north of Hwy 7. Is that their new facility? Have they sold off the building up by E470 and Dillon Rd?

Just curious since I'd heard they were starting to ramp up production again.

Finally! I now know what the collective noun for "Earthroamer" is! :victory:

I use one of the companies in that warehouse complex to do some go-fast engine work for me. When i was there last week, i too saw the gaggle of earthroamers :Wow1:

I couldn't fight the urge and stopped in their new office, which was confirmed to me to be their new office/shop.

Good to see them up and running again

From the mapquest aerial view, this looks like a new industrial park,
just across the street from a very large auto wrecking yard. A few
miles away, there's a quarter mile oval track called, rather grandly,
Colorado National Speedway. The track has a paved oval and a
figure-8 course for demolition derbies. Buy at the wrecking yard
on Friday, race on Saturday, return the pieces to the yard on Sunday!

Makes sense. That building they had in Louisville was gorgeous, but I'm sure a little too much space given the change in economy.

You should see the little electric obama stimulus mobiles they're going to be building in the old ER building...They look like an old fashioned milk truck, or a shrunk down Mister Softee ice cream truck. They are supposed to be to improve the air quality of our fine land since they will have no emissions...I guess they forgot the coal burned to generate the electric...

Nice to hear that the Earthroamer building is back in business.

The company making the electric vehicles mentioned above may be Boulder Electric Vehicle.

Now THIS is a much more uplifting story!! Thank You for letting us know that something that earthroamer had a hand in creating will be doing some true good for the world. Let's all try to move a little more in this direction!!

Anyone know of a kit that could convert the zebra into an all electric or propane burner??

propane conversion should be quite simple if you already have a gasoline engine, my brother have a couple of american cars in the UK that he got converted to run on propane to lower the cost, and is planning to do his 5 series BMW as well, i can ask who he uses if you like, send me a PM

They're in the process of moving into a new facility in Longmont, but the vehicles that I've seen of theirs are pretty slick.

Sorry bud but the Geese have retained and (c) "gaggle" and parrots own rights to "company" and "pandemonium".:coffeedrink:
