Why someone ISN'T going to buy a Chevy Volt

A friend of mine recently got a chance to test drive a Chevy Volt, and said that he "didn't see one in my future."

When EVERYONE asked why, he replied on an e-mailing list about how the vehicle seemed to be designed by committee, and that there was too much technology between the driver and the road.

It was the first review that I have heard that really talked about how somebody FELT about the vehicle, instead of being just a long list of specs.

I asked for his permission to reprint his words on my blog so head over there to find out Why a Chevy Volt isn't for him.
