No Country For Old GM (ReMix)

Well folks, the acid has finally hit the battery!

I got a huge "charge" out of Doug Powers' post on Michelle Malkin's blog regarding "The Chevy Volt, the $41,000 before-tax-credit, four-seat car that you might as well buy because you’re paying for it anyway, goes 40 miles on a charge before the engine that requires premium gasoline kicks in and will probably cost its buyers more than a few friendships because the “dude, can I bum your electrical outlet for a few hours so I can get back home?” thing will get old fast, is officially on the market."

The long-hoped for collapse of GM never came, thanks to the Federal bail-out!

Powers notes: This means that the search for the perfect Chevy Volt slogan is on. My current favorite is from Twitterer Gunservatively: “I could have had a V8.”

I once had the pleasure of riding in an EV1... it was an amazing car! Thanks to Doug P for an amazing little post!
