So how long until the EPA or somebody makes it the “official” company car and orders a bunch. You know, to “show the way”.

Nobody is going to buy these things, except lefty billionaires looking for a fourth or fifth car to impress their neighbors.

Thats what happens when you let a know-nothing idiot who’s never held a real job like Barry Soetoro tell GM how to run its business.

Mean while plant workers are getting full weekly pay for one day a week work. So please stop worrying about their welfare.

I would say that these Obama greenie-cars are the Edsels of the new millennium except for the fact that after 60 years Edsels have collector value, with some selling for $100,00.

In 60 years these greenie-cars and their burned out batteries will be nothing but toxic rust piles in roadside junkyards.

>> Volt: 928

I wonder how many of those were bought by federal, state, and municipal governments.

Consumer Reports sure didn’t think much of them.

Clearly it is time for another gubmint intervention.....(just like Prius and what’s the name for that Honda car?)

$4,500 incentives for every person buying one of these babies.

Autoblog reports that the Chevy Volt sold 281 units in February, down from 321 in February.

Nothing I've read about the Volt even hinted at the possibility that it's a time machine!

C’mon you big libs - put your money where your mouths are!

How many do the Clintons, Gores, and Mickey Moores own?

(Oops, Moore would have to wait for the wide-track model to come out)

Products from Central Planning always fail.

It's the very hallmark of Communism/Socialism. The committees decide what you get, and it's never what you want.

Welcome to .... "change" and "sacrifice".

So what GM and the gubmint is telling us is that the Volt is the best they can up with using that type of technology. No longer is it considered a stepping stone to more fuel efficient cars. They’re openly declaring that the Volt is ready for prime time. Lord help us all.
