Get ready, Chevy Volt due this November. Update!!!

[JB400]

Still have yet to see one in person.

Of course, I'm not really looking, either.

I seen one at a local car show.  They're nothing to brag about.

[Fred]

My parrot just threw a fit.  I taught him how to use the computer.   He works the computer.  I just chime in.  He doesn't like Chevy's.  Besides, I'm done talking about the ----.  I don't even want to type it in.  I think all points have been made for it and against it.  Until something new about it comes to light, it's a nuissance.

I actually agree.

What's wrong with you?    Are you ill??

It's purpose was to be a car that had two sources of power and great mileage.  Not a show car.  What's to brag about is under the hood where you can't see.

No. Bored with standing up for a great car idea.  It's out there, people love it, not much more to add.

[Ghoste]

A few love it.

There is a "Brand X" Electric S-10 Pick-up out there that runs in the 10's 1/4 Mile sure, but it cost out the ass to get that kinda performance from electric set up..I'm all about bang for the buck...Electric motors that produce the same power as say a 500 C.I. Gas Stroker engine, will no doubt cost four times as much...

Show me an electric motor that cost the same as a gas engine that produces more power for the same money and I'll be first in line....

A friend who has a body shop had 1 of the 20 that were made, in due to an accident.  I went to look at it, and it was pretty unusual.  According to the owner, the Government had GM make these.

Referring to those that bought one.

Not the government.  Just by the Kennedys.

Yeah, same thing.

[JB400]

If I understand that then, the government wants to kill us with electric cars?

Some of the odd stories out there when owning a Volt.

http://www.greencarreports.com/news/1079826_judge-charged-with-theft-for-plugging-in-chevy-volt-electric-car


At the GE headquarters in Fairfield Ct some of the people that have corporate Prius cars do complain that those that have Volts are plugging in at GE and getting free charges to their cars. They have talked about installing meter type chargers where you pay for the charge.

[1969chargerrtse]

Just when you thought the 40k Chevy wasn't selling, get ready for the 60k Caddy.

[Ghoste]

Yeah, you already mentioned the Volt with leather.  Based on the sales records the Volt has been making, adding a higher priced version should have GM out of the red in a couple of months. 

[1969chargerrtse]

Yeah does sound kinda crazy to build an even more expensive car off the platform of one that is selling slow?  " The Volt with leather " Good one.

[JB400]

They should use corinthian leather

[Fred]

When only the best will do. 

[1969chargerrtse]

Makes you wonder how they went under while making such sound decisions? 

[JB400]

Maybe GM crystal ball is broke   Gotta learn from your mistakes as well as other peoples..
