After driving over 5,000 in my Volt, I'm totally satisfied. Saturday and Sunday we ran all over the area doing errands, about 180 miles. The Volt was plugged in between trips...zero gallons of gas used used. We also took it on vacation where it ran almost entirely on gas, and it performed flawlessly. Except for plugging it in at night, you could forget it's electric most of the time. And keeping petro-dollars at home is good for America. I suspect the closer we get to 5 buck gas, the better the Volt will look - except to the haters.

Hey,

I'm doing research on the Volt for one of my classes at Temple University and we'd love to hear how you feel about the Volt.

If you wouldn't mind filling out this short survey it would be really helpful!

Thanks!

You know you're wrong about the engine powering the wheels - right? The engine powers the Voltec system (a generator) which sends power to the battery.

Understand the technology before you call something else a joke.
