Comments on: Bob Lutz to Appear on Late Night With David Letterman and Rebuke False Volt Claims http://gm-volt.com/2009/05/15/bob-lutz-to-appear-on-late-night-with-david-letterman-and-restore-the-volts-image/ Real-time news, information, and discussion about the Chevrolet Volt.

Many times in the years watching GM function with their many changes and many strikes for different benefits did we ever see or hear that they were interested in building a functional vehicle that could be somewhat practical and cheap to operate. The Volt is a wonderful idea that seems to get whacko's like Letterman wrapped around Rush's big gas hoggin SUV. However, GM does need to lead the way and they have already gotten themselves in a bind with the stuff that they thought was going to last forever. It appears at times as if the Petrol Industry brings down the prices so they can get guys like Letterman to help keep the big fuel pumpers on the road. It sounds as if GM is getting a little weak in the knees about the Volt. We sure are not getting any information on it and the last was "We need better battery Technology". OK, I gues that's a good excuse! Go for it!!! and you'll never build the vehicle. Let us hope that we can soon buy a Chevy Volt and that it is within a reasonable price range that even the laborers that build them can afford. I know many that would love to buy one and drive it everyday to their good General Motors job, if they just can keep it. If they are lucky, maybe the Union will fill up their tanks to get to work so they can make the Union some more money. Isn't that fair? I agree with my husband who was brought up in the GM family.

The Volt is a great idea and letterman is just down right "Stupid". I guess he is another who talks without reading first. I thought at least a few of us Indiana boys could read! GM needs to get their act together and this is a good start. NO MORE BIG GAS HOGS. Let the workers build something that we need and they will be working for a long time. There is NO question that GM has built some very good vehicles in the past but that is just it, "The Past". GM needs to build for the future. With the Volt, they can make the future providing they don't start their iniative because "They don't think they can make money from the venture". GM needs to be brave and not worry about the loss of money, hell they have already loss billions on those vehicles that they said that was their bread and butter.

The Prius has a 1.5 by the way... ;-) (Damn fuel sucking big block!) I am kidding of course, although I want a Volt I still give Toyota kudos for going first. While confirming I had the right displacement for the Prius I found this web site... wanna hop up your Prius??? http://srmotorsports.net/ #89 Dan Heggem
