And foolish, 'ecology minded' Liberal Early Adopters will gladly pony up the extra money. But, none of the excess goes to GM, it stays in the pocket of the dealer who makes a nice fat profit on it. The owner of that dealership must be a Republican. Or, maybe just a hypocrite Democrat along the liines of Rangle, Kerry, Gore, et al.

It's the free enterprise system." > I wouldn't buy one at half price.. The 40 mile wonder.. :/ Doesn't go far enough to do me any good.. I really don't see how they will sell very many of them. A few moovee stars and tree huggers might buy a few, but for the general driver they strike me as a fairly useless vehicle. And you gotta plug them doggies in somewhere.
