"So you think the Chevrolet Volt electric car will cost too much? Tell
that to the Chevy dealer who has already decided to charge $20,000
over the sticker price.

That's right. Months before the first Volt lands on a showroom floor,
there's enough excitement that the dealer -- who earns a living
calculating what the market will bear -- is charging nearly 50% more
than General Motors' asking price for the revolutionary car.

If that's any yardstick, the 2011 Volt is drastically underpriced.
Supply and demand, baby. It's the free enterprise system."

I wouldn't buy one at half price.. The 40 mile wonder.. :/
Doesn't go far enough to do me any good..
I really don't see how they will sell very many of them.
A few moovee stars and tree huggers might buy a few,
but for the general driver they strike me as a fairly
useless vehicle. And you gotta plug them doggies in
somewhere.
