Especially since you could get a Tata Nano for $under $3000, the
interest alone on the difference would pay for the gas as the Nano
gets
more than 50 mpg, A/C works too on the $3500 model, as well a s heat.
Even European crash rated.

GM, like the Volt, too expensive and too screwed up to be
economically
viable.

But at GM, they keep sucking those tax dollars. Obama style, can you
say charge it to the taxpayer?

Volt/GM is insanity.

Here's what we need more of...

Couple people in my neighbourhood drive electric 'Vespa type' scooters.
Weird.. they pass by without a sound. These models seem a bit low
powered,
and the owners drive like little old ladies on Sunday.

Must be like driving a RAV4


A RAV4 is quite peppy and agile since the 2009 model year. The 6 cyl
version would blow the doors off whatever polluting clunker you drive
around.


But the 4 cyl version won't. Correct? You have the older grocery hauler
version. Not a car, not a station wagon, not a truck. What shall we call
it? A baby SUV of course.


No, my little stinky stalker.
I have a 2009 with the new 2.5 liter 4 cyl... boasting 179 hp.
