Friends: 10 |  Re: 33,000 buyers supposedly signed up for GM Volt the list means NOTHING... i am on it, i signed up when the Volt was supposed to get "up to 40 miles EV range for prices starting in the mid 20's" as we all know, THAT volt will never happen even after the $7500 tax credit also, i find it MINIMALLY altruistic to buy a car that still burns gas at any price. changing your commuting methods, taking a bus, train or bike is doing something. buying a 100% EV is doing something (had to mention that!!) albeit, not as much as the above... buying anything that gets better gas mileage WAS doing something. but that was back when hybrids faced a large uphill climb full of misconceptions... not so true any more. as much as i love my Pri, its still the best option for longer distance travel, i will not buy another if i can get an EV that can do the trick which means the volt, as nice as it sounds, is simply 5 YEARS TOO LATE
