While Tesla Motors continues to fight it out on a state level with dealership groups—most recently gaining ground in Georgia but getting shut out in West Virginia—one thing is for sure about the automaker's product: The Tesla Model S is, again and by far, the most-loved vehicle in the U.S.
The Tesla Model S, according to the market-research firm Strategic Vision, boasts figures of ‘love’ from their overall vehicle experience that handily top those for much-loved sports-car models like the Porsche Boxster and 911.
A whopping 92 percent of owners of the Model S summed their experience in the top “I Love It” box. It’s a pretty good indication of what a disruptive product the 2015 Tesla Model S continues to be.
...
The Model S wasn’t the only ‘green’ vehicle near the top of the list. The Chevrolet Volt placed second among mass-market cars—second only to the Dodge Charger—in that ‘love’ metric.

The idea that Tesla's money or GM’s money ends up in Obama’s hands is comically laughable. Are you wearing three tin foil hats today or just two?
” The government sold their stock in GM ages ago, try to keep up.”
Bzzzt.
Gm still run by Obama toadies, and despite the lying claims to the contrary, the “loan” was not repaid.
Haven’t driven one, but I see two every morning on my commute into Scottsdale. It’s the most beautiful car on the road.
But he seems to be doing better and providing more value than others who are getting taxpayer money. He didn’t make the rules of the game, either.

No, you missed the point!
Gasoline can be stored in cans or drums and quickly transferred to a car.
Not so for electricity.
Gasoline can be transferred from one car to another; not so electricity.
30 gallons of gasoline can be pumped out of a tank using a portable electric generator and a few quarts of fuel at most in minutes in an emergency.
Not so electricity.

Parasite of taxpayer money is still a parasite despite any effectiveness.
So three tin-foil hats. Got it.
Taxpayers Don't Have Government Motors To Kick Around Any More
Treasury closes the book on GM bailout with final stock sale
As much as you want to delude yourself in the fantasy that the government still runs GM, reality says otherwise.

You’re kind of a noobie here, so its no surprise that you might think you can inject your leftie quips without offering substance, but again, No Cigar!
GM still owes its outrageous existence to the US Government, and Obingo in particular, ant that fact is not likely to ever go away.
Obingo stole GM from the bond holders that rightfully own it, and gave it to the unions that bankrupted it in the first place.

That same generator can charge an electric car.
Anyway, if it worries you that much then a Volt might be a better fit for you.
"GM has been revived and is now profitable, but taxpayers are out more than $10 billion dollars."
I expect any company I ran could be profitable if someone GAVE me 10 BILLION dollars of someone else's money.
Willie Green, is that you?
It always helps to remember that LogicDesigner is a stooge for the electric car industry, maybe even a paid one.
Essentially, he’s Willie Green reborn, off the rails and on the battery instead…
I don't like that the unions got bailed out any more than you do. In my opinion, they are the main reason the auto industry tanked in the first place.
That doesn't change the fact that the government no longer has a stake in GM.
Darksheare is trying to claim that somehow buying a Chevy would fund Iran. It is monumentally ridiculous.
.
>> “That same generator can charge an electric car.” <<
Bullshit!
Only with the same amount of gasoline that would take a car 4 or 500 miles, and taking all day or more!
You’re sure full of manure!

GMTA!! :-)

Nope. Read my profile for why I support electric cars.
By the way, I am not anti-electric car.
Or anti-solar. Or anti-windpower, etc.
But the implication is distasteful that somehow buying an electric car by TAKING the money of other people who don’t believe in the current state of electric car technology, while implying that doing so is taking a moral stand of some kind against a nuclear-enabled Iran.
You might gain more ears by being less strident. Just my opinion.

Hi Forrest!
I see stupid is still as you do!

Last EV fanboy to go nuts like this guy was called “naturalized”.
He accused a poster of “ slandering the Chevy volt”.
LD has no idea how our money is being used to fund illegal immigration, isis, and other things mentioned.
They may be a retread too, will have to look into that.
But they are a total fanboy for everything electric and musk in particular.
Splendid, a fan of a parasite.
