Regardless, I drive less than 40miles a day (in fact its more like 20 miles) and love the idea of never having to get gas again (if I just drive to and from work in it)
Oh snap. Man thats awesome! I couldnt imagine never having to get gas again. How much is that bad boy gona be?

I don't really think 35K is worth not getting gas again. Can you tell I'm drunk this is cool. I hate electric cars. They suck.

i agree. how much do you guys spend on gas?? 1000-1500 a year? i dont see any reason to spend 35000 on a car to not use gas.

i dunno, think about it this way - if you have something with the performance like.. the zr1 corvette, would it not be worth it if you didnt have to pay gas ever again?
Granted, i have no idea of the 'suposed' performance of the Volt. Nor do i like the styling of said vehicle. But i do like the fact that they're trying again w/ the electric car.

If you seen the technology in RC cars and Electric vs Gas. You'd see Electric has TONS of potential. I'll still wait for a Dodge electric though.

LMAO Nice. Although I'm sure I would be more worried that my WIFE would see the pics of my girlfriend in that post. LOL
It still goes to show that generally there is no excuse for bad grammar. Seeing as how I was hammered and still able to punctuate correctly. LOL

Electronics and electric motors have tons of potential, but the battery technology is crap right now. I say this totally ignoring the environmental nightmare that widespread electric car battery use presents.

I mean.....Dodge doesn't even have a hybrid. I'm just not sure why you'd trust their technology when every other car brand has experience with it.
