Cool

You guys got me with this topic. I spent a long time wondering why someone would not want a Chevy Volt.

Hmm... reasons why I would not buy a Chevrolet Volt:
1) I would be funding the Chevy pension plan.
2) I would be giving money to Union/Mofia crooks.
3) I would be endorsing a car company that crushed the EV1.
4) I would be accepting the fact that the car is just an upgraded EV1 and the $BILLIONS spent developing it were for nothing.


Yet... I will buy the EV1 or any other American Plug-In Hybrid because:
#1 I will purchase energy from American sourced fuel sources like Natural Gas and Coal.
#2 The energy required to charge an EV, if coming from a coal plant, is cleaner than the tailpipe of my 2009 Honda Accord.
#3 I will be part of the a new green revolution that no one can ever stop.
