Steve, HURRAY someone actually voiced my thoughts too. How pitiful is GM - pushing BUMMERS (I mean HUMMERS) instead of concentrating on gas economy. But then again Steve, we are not getting kickbacks from BIG OIL as GM does! Let me share a story with you that will make your head spin. While at Epcot yesterday, I heavily questioned the GM rep (she was so lost for words, she had to walk away from me). They were highlighting their new FUEL CELL TRUCK - oh, by the way, this won't be ready for 4-6 years. When I questioned her about the EV1, she dodged my question. I specifically stated "you had the technology then so what you destroyed all of the blueprints for the EV1". Naturally, she had no idea of how to respond. GM's new press campaign is simply gas guzzling fluff. She especially did not like the fact of me stating "you had a phenomenal product but decided to crush it - meaning the EV1". Of course, if and when (which is a BIG if and when) the Volt comes to market, this will also only be available by lease. How convenient, she if it is successful and there is a need, GM will take it back from you and crush it- JUST like the EV1. Hmmmmm, history somewhat repeating itself! SHAME ON GM!
