Let us all remember GM’s motto, “There’s nothing out there that we cannot do worse.”

Makes perfect sense to promote a coal-powered cars at a time when our idiot president is killing the coal industry.

Yuck! Ugly car, ugly color. Why do those two failures always seem to go together?

Am I stupid? I have two friends who drive a Prius, which they’ve had FOR YEARS. Both are still getting over 45 MPG with plenty of power, carrying 4 of us to the Alabama game last week. I understand the new models are even better, and in fact you see Chicago Cabbies driving them.
How does this compare with the mediocrity at GM?

Note the obama-zombie driving it, and all the folks on the sidewalk, IGNORING it.
Good color for the car...for the obama-zombies.

... among the small number of EVs available. The current leader, the electric Ford Focus sedan, can go 76 miles on a charge. The Tesla Roadster can go over 200 miles on a charge.

Remind me I need to remove all outside outlets on my home and business.
I'm old enough to remember the rash of siphoning during the first fuel crisis. I see history repeating itself, but this time with extension cords.

If I saw something like this on my driveway, I’d spray it with Raid. Ugleee.

One of the benefits of rural life, that thing will destroy itself inside a year getting back to my home everyday so I have a perfect excuse to laugh at it.
Sometimes I threaten to not smooth the washouts in on our hills with the tractor just to listen to the whining of my wife’s friend who drives a Prius back to our place all the time.
Can’t stand that woman...

Oh, goody! A Voltette mini-electric hybrid. Nothing is impossible for Government Motors and Obama’s ego.

The blue vehicle parked behind it is a much more practical form of transportation (bicycle).
