Stkfrog, I wish I had a $3,000 private offer, I would be looking at a 2017 Volt right now. I also had a 2003 Jetta Wagon TDI before going to our first 2014 Volt. We now have a 2016 Volt Premier which is getting great electric range, 68 indicated, and gas only mpg's, last trip 53+ mpg. Probably better than a TDI running on more expensive diesel instead of rot gut 87 octane.
I would look around for a 2017, the 2018 Volt is really not changed from 2017, as far as the propulsion system and overall looks. There are dealers here in the northwest offering 2017 Volt LT's for under $30,000 dollars, some dealers in the Seattle / Tacoma, Washington area less than $29,000, that would bring you price down to less than $20,000 if you can use the $7,500 Federal Tax Credit.
I would get a 2017 Volt, as you would probably save thousands over a 2018 which would only be a year only change, nothing more.
The Volt is a great choice with more technology than any other car you can buy for the price.
