    Default First Volt sale

    Well...I didn't actually sell the Volt but my coworker probably wouldn't have bought his this weekend if he had not driven mine and heard me talk about it's benefits. He is not an EV early adopter but likes nice vehicles and with the current lease deals he couldn't resist any longer with his minivan having transmission problems. It should work out well for him replacing the minivan's gas consumption and his driving pattern. Now I have to schedule an electrician to run a couple of 120v circuits to our parking area.

    Word of mouth from actual owners is the best advertising there is, especially since Volt ads seem scarce these days. And NOTHING beats a Volt test drive to see what the car can do and how it handles.

    Congrats on your new sale Koz! I'm sure going from a minivan to the Volt will not hurt his driving experience.

    That is the best way to introduce folks to the Volt in a non-pressure enviroment, but I must ask this, won't he miss the size of the mini-van?

    I'm sure there will be some times when he will but he only has one child so it won't be very often. All of the other time, he'll be ecstatic with the Volt and his wife has a larger car for the other rare occasions.

    I traded my mini-van. I haven't missed it yet.
