    Default The 10,000 EV miles and 300 MPG club...

    Anyone else in both clubs? I realized I'm in the 300 MPG club as well as hit 10,000 EV miles. Looking back 10 months ago, I was hoping for about 180-200 mpg but the charger at work was a game changer....About 91% electric. 320 MPG....

    13077 EV miles and "250+" mpg.

    I wish OnStar would display mpg above 250. I will have to go to the car, switch to metric, then convert l/100km to mpg.

    I easily have 10,000 but the 3,660 mile trip to NY from FL killed my percent since it was mostly gas. Still was the right choice over the other car we have.....

    I do get above 250 routinely.

    Yep! 340+ MPG and 16,000+ EV miles.

    With that said, I'm thinking about selling the car. While I immensely enjoy driving it I read on a right wing website that it's really just a glorified golf cart. Those people writing about the Volt on those websites seem very confident in their opinion and I'm starting to think they know more about the Volt than I do even though I own one and have followed it for a couple of years before I bought it. From what I gather, Obama was also a key team member along with Lutz, Lauckner, Farah, Posawatz, et al to bring the Volt to life and therefore I KNOW that this car must suck!

    10567 EV miles, 302mpg. My wife will be driving a lot today, so it will be iffy staying in the club.

    If you're not already, go register on VoltStats.net (it uses your OnStar login) and it'll give you your "true" MPG, among other stats.
