Test Drive's Healey on Chevy Volt tiff: Price is only real flaw - Drive On: A conversation about the cars and trucks we drive - USATODAY.com


Knock off the carping, sniping and snarking about the Chevy Volt (see earlier post here that includes GM's full-throated defense). The attacks from Volt rivals and from writers seem so silly, so irrelevant.

They are about on par with criticizing a diesel railroad locomotive because its diesel engines turn a generator that runs the electric motors that turn the wheels that drive the train. Who cares? Works fine."



Excerpted from a USAToday article by Chris Woodyard.


So, the Chevy Volt is about to hit the market and more and more information is coming out about how it works and so forth.

And along with that comes every knucklehead and his cat's opinion on how GM lied, what car is better, who has the worst labor and what political party is allied with then devil.

The article above is one of a growing number of comments in the media telling these nutjobs to get over themselves.

Amazing.

What's more, in the comments attached to the article these most of the posters ignore what's written and ramble off on there own. Much like me but at least I'm interesting. I have realistic role models - Scott Adams and Daffy Duck. Seriously.

I just thought it should be pointed out.
