OMG Myrtle, there's one of those horseless carriages....it's the end of the world! I am remained of that after read some recent posts.
After one month and 400 miles I have used ZERO gas and electric bill was less than 15 bucks in my 2013 Volt. I spent days doing research and analyzing my personal car needs. 99 percent of my daily driving is 30 miles or less round trip to the Dr., medical center, Trader Joes, Costco and casino. Yes, I am retired! My Suzuki Grand Vitara was on its last legs and I had a 300.00/month budget. Wouldn't buy a Volt but the lease program is great. After a trip, just plug it in my carport and 10 hours later, I have a full tank of "fuel" at a cost of about 1.25 and ready for the next trip. Would I take the Volt on a long road trip? No, because that's what the 07 S550 is for. But, unlike the Nissan Leaf and Focus EV, I could if I wanted to in the Volt. Why not the Prius plugin? Only has a pure battery range of 12 miles vs. 32 miles with the Volt. Actually got 42 miles today with the ac off. So, the Volt scenario fits only a few consumers like myself but don't call me dumb or not understanding what I was getting into.....I did my homework Dad!
