Volt! Volt! Volt! Volt!



I've never seen so many Volts on one trip.

I went to a cottage east of Montreal this weekend, and while I knew the car was more popular in Quebec than anywhere else in Canada, I had no idea just how popular.

I easily counted a dozen gen 1 & 2's, and I wasn't looking particularly hard.

Supposedly there's one dealership north of Montreal that sells more Volts than any other dealership, and "As a matter of fact, 17 out of 30 employees have their very own Volts".
