    Smile It's a Volt House warming!

    This past weekend, my wife and I were invited to a housewarming for my niece. As soon as we pulled into the driveway, some people were commenting on the Volt. I went in the house to say hello and get settled, then went back outside to show the Volt. While we were there for several hours, I don't think I was in the house for more than 3/4 hour or so. I had one groups of guys that were asking all kinds of questions on the Volt. I did my best to answer them. Then i had a separate group of my sisters in law, who were also quite intent on the Volt. I ended giving them a ride around the block also. As my wife had another engagement set for after the housewarming, we had to leave when I pulled back in after the second road trip. How time flies when you're having fun!

    Not only did you have fun but you likely provided factual information and will have those talking about how great of a car is. The power of the word of mouth with a great car like this will help get the facts out and correct the incorrect impressions and rumors. Nice job!

    Great job! I am sure that you helped straighten out some mis-conceptions of this great car and had some fun while doing it.

    It might lead to a few more Volts running around in the wild in your area.
