I'm with you. I call B$ on Elon every time he starts up about his car, LOL. I'm sort of impressed with the rockets. The car, not so much.Solar panels aren't free, neither is land to put charge stations on. So which "other people's money" makes it "free"? I'm afraid I have to call B$ here. When are people as a whole going to figure out that those other people are us - and our wallets?
I agree with CarZin on this - I like the Volt just as it is. I don't burn gas often, but often enough to make the design worth it in all regards.
