Default The Volt

Well, Gaunt and I may or may not have been under the influence and excited about the fact that this car was plugged in




I drove this car earlier in the day, before the ing, and I liked it ok. It must be either my age group, or my love for muscle cars and trucks, but it was just blah. I felt like there were a lot of complicated gadgets in the car, so it took some getting used to, and I only drove it down the street to the Target and back. Also, the electric powered braking was sensitive and very weird. Otherwise, I can definitely see this car selling. Didn't use one drop of gas all day and the inside was pretty comfy!

Where did you plug it into? Just a wall socket? Or did you have to un plug the dryer.
