Re: Est. 230 MPG WOW
I think the Volt is an evolutionary step in the development of the electric car and all such things have high prices and are only bought by early adopters.
However one disturbing thing I read a few weeks ago that is the dirty little secret they don't want the public to know about is that the high mileage numbers are based on the car being fully charged every night from a high voltage hookup. At present the reality is that this car will appeal to many urban owners who will not have access to those type electrical hookups as their cars park on the street. This means the gasoline engine will be operating a a lot more for those folks and it is not all that efficient in driving that generator to power the electirc motor.

"We did not wear uniforms. The lady workers dressed in the current fashions of the day, ...silks...satins...jewels or whatever they happened to possess. They were very smartly turned out, so that they made an impressive appearance on the streets where a large part of our work was conducted in the early years.
"It was not until long after, when former Holiness preachers had become part of us, that strict plainness of dress began to be taught.
"Although Entire Sanctification was preached at the beginning of the Movement, it was from a Wesleyan viewpoint, and had in it very little of the later Holiness Movement characteristics. Nothing was ever said about apparel, for everyone was so taken up with the Lord that mode of dress seemingly never occurred to any of us."
