So, why isn’t (the non-bailed-out) Ford Motor Company building one for the current market?

GM’s current tv ad where the smug Volt owner is questioned by the fast food geniuses has to be killing them.
The stated 35 mile range (probably max on an electrical charge) is waking up the independents, who have ignored our warnings on the Volt.
One of our younger relatives rides his bike/bikes with a group of 40 something bike riders. Often they ride 70 to 100 miles each Saturday. He has put this 35 mile reality to the other riders. If they had bike troubles and their significant other had a Volt, they would need gas to help them on many days. Most have no arguements just a sheepish shrug.
Another younger relative caught the Fox Business group reviewing the Volt, and one of the liberal in the Fox group said that he was against members of the so called 1% making $150+ per year getting his/our tax $’s as an incentive to buy a Volt.
Our relative is hammering his peers and fellow workers with that reality. Most of these people are in fairly high tax brackets and are very sensitive to taxes at this time of the year. He told one semi Pro Volt guy that a lot of his tax $’s were going to a rich left wing yuppie to buy a Volt to be in the smug green crowd.

"
"We engineered the Volt to be a technological wonder." "
It's a "wonder" alright...it's a wonder it makes it 25 miles on a 24-hour charge.
It takes 24 hours to equal one gallon of gasoline.
That means if I want to drive, say, from Atlanta to Augusta, about 100 miles, I will need to stop four times, for at least 8 hours to charge it up again (IF I can find a place equipped to charge it), that's about 32 hours to cover a distance my gasoline powered car cando in about 2 hours...if I stick to the speed limit.
Who wants to tolerate this ridiculousness to passify a gaggle of enviromental occupiers?
I hear that obama said he'd buy a "Volt" when he leaves office...I predict, he won't. He's too lazy, and he and the "queen" are too spoiled on the trappings of royalty to be seen in such a dumpy little car.
It will still be limosines and caviar for the chosen one, even after he is out of office.
The Volt is an excuse obama to do nothing else about energy. It's a "vehicle" for him to pay back the unions and to throw a monkey wrench into the American industrial complex.
Chevy calling the Volt a "technological wonder" makes me wonder about the other cars in their future...for instance, will they all come with a one-gallon gas tank? Will they all catch fire?
The "Volt" is a four letter word and a mechanical representation of the obama administration.

Lee noted that sales of the Volt were higher in February than they were in January, and added that California recently decided to allow the electric car to qualify for High Occupancy Vehicle (HOV) lanes in the state. That is it, problem solved...LOL... people are now going to buy the Chevy Volt by the millions, pay 30% more than a regular car just to use the HOV lanes... It would be very funny if not so insulting for any human with an IQ over 80...

General Motors has temporarily suspended production of its Volt electric car, the company announced Friday.When does 0bama give a speech stating:
"It's not perfect but without it it would be MUCH worse"?

Has anyone seen this:
I saw a Volt state propaganda release and they called the Volt, the Extended Range Volt.
Is there a new version where they did something to the car so it goes farther on batteries or is this merely an advertizing weasel word?

I understand that the real reason to close the plant - and it’s only temporary - is to re-tool the plant for better fireproofing.

But I just saw a commercial on TV that said the Volt was the car that America “had to build.”
How can this be?

Perhaps Obama will call the workers and tell them “think small”, your American dream has been downsized.
