A friend of mine bought a Volt as well and he figures that he'll have to add gas twice a year, to keep it fresh, because the gas engine does start up every few months just to make sure the bearings are lubed, but the Volt also has a fuel system that is designed to prolong the fuel life so it doesn't go stale as fast.

I got to ride as a passenger and it's a nice car, about what I'd expect for a car that costs that much.
