Good to hear. It’s possible you will get a premium for your used Volt, as they are discontinuing it and has a large following.

The Tesla is setting a high bar, but you may find the market a whole new ball game when you are ready. - Mark Sent from my Fuel Cell powered iPhone > On Mar 10, 2019, at 6:51 PM, Rod Hower <rodho...@ameritech.net> wrote: > > I drove a Model 3 dual motor and single this weekend.
