GM is back peddling on the electric car like they did with the EV-1. Basing the price of a car on the price of gas is ludicrous.

JRR Tolkein couldnt follow that. It sounds like the writers of the TV show 'LOST' came up with the marketing plan.

I became a fan and followed Volt for two years now and now, after reading this I am rooting for other companies to come up with their answers to Volt. I WILL/AM looking at other cars. This is the kind of attitude that got GM in trouble in a first place. Get your head out of your a**es GM. This company needs to just die and US auto industry needs room for newcomers. no he’s not a moron.
