^^ The last refuge of a RW dingbat- change the channel, fool.
Unfortunately, with today's new bs propaganda, pander to the greedy idiot rich, hater dupes ARE always wrong. Thanks for wrecking the nonrich and the country with Voodoo, 9/11 and the stupidest wars ever, a corrupt world depression, and 5 years of mindless obstruction, fear mongering, and phony crises.
Rush and Pub propaganda- aided by idiotic, cowardly, controversy and ratings only corporate media, almost killed the Chevy Volt, Motor Trend Car of the Year. STUPID bs about fires everywhere and costing $278k each (NOT, R and D when just a few produced- just all the facts left out...)- Now selling as hoped even without RW buyers...
We bought a Chevy Volt last year for my husband.
It's a great car.
We live about a mile from his work so it runs on the electricity most of the time.
I highly recommend the car.
It goes a whole mile without using up the battery?
Holy samoly! Stop the presses!
The Chevy Volt goes 40 miles on a charge.
It runs on the charge until it's used then it runs on the gas.
We live very close to his work so he hardly ever runs the car on the gas. It's usually run on the charge.
The only times he uses the gas is when we go to our other house that's close to 200 miles away. Or when he drives into the city and back. it flips over to the gas on the drive home.
Other than that, he drives on the charge. I just went to his car and looked at the screen. He gets 104 miles to the gallon. He's gone 12 thousand miles on the car. I don't know how many times he's filled the tank since he's gotten the car.
A lot of people don't drive that far from their homes and thus a car with both electricity and gas can be very environmentally friendly and very practical.
I drive a Prius.
Hubby and I decided in 2001 when we bought hubby's first Prius to never buy a regular gas car again.
The Prius I'm driving now is my second hybrid car.
