This is such a tragicomic story, good grief, look at all those hefty-bag covered signs. It is nothing less than a boondoggle of epic proportions. Pure stupidity. And it is costing the public money... FOR WHAT? Better to use those shovels to dig for oil... which is not in tight supply now or for the next 100 years.

That's fantastic news! What a waste of money for something that will go unused. I will go to Lowe's from now on, I don't feel like subsidizing these fools by paying higher prices to help them cover these specious costs.

West Coast USA is a small portion of the world, and it's a "different" area. And "pooping" is right!

Not for much longer?

You have to come home to plug it in. There's a gas station on every street corner. Why spend money to rent a car, just buy a usable car to begin with. One that can be used in any personal transportation situation you can name.

I am not sure, but I think it's an International. Maybe a Diamond T. White? REO? I wish the photo were bigger to help me discern.

I hereby deny that I have been denying that electric cars exist, and that more are coming. What I have been saying is, people are not buying them with their money. Yes, they are buying a few of them with a good deal of other people's money, but not their own. Electrics have fatal practicality and usability issues that have not been solved in 100 years of electric cars. Manufacturers are being coerced into spending precious engineering dollars on electric vehicles that people will not buy because the electric car has a cord that is only so long... there is no real freedom of mobility with electrics. And that has not changed. I've conceded before that the Volt, a GM vehicle, is the best out of all of these compromised mobility devices. That is why I posted this thread. But being the best heavily electrified mass market car doesn't make it as good as a gas or diesel powered car, because the inherent issues still affect it. Maybe the best thing for me to do is to stop stating the obvious and let you guys have your fun with Power Wheels. Everybody here knows my stance on this issue, as I've made it perfectly clear. I know I'm not the only one who feels this way, I've just been the most unrelentingly vocal about it. So if this is no longer a discussion forum that allows dissenting points of view, I will do my best to comply and STFU.

Just to get in the driver's seat I guess.

you're durn tootin'

...said the owner of a GMC Sierra that burns diesel fuel and a motor bike that burns gasoline. I don't know if you still have your other non-electric car or not. please post photos of your new Spark Electric as soon as you get it, mmkay.

The simple fact remains that they aren't going to sell any.

Here's an example:

Ah, Fort Myers, Florida. What a good place to celebrate a December birthday. Have a good one! Stay warm!

Next time you're over to the YouTube on the internets, check out this guy's channel. He's out in Oregon where trucks don't rust away to nothing. http://www.youtube.com/user/ElderlyIron?feature=watch He's got a lot of videos uploaded, so you might have to look around, but his GMC finds and Redneck Restorations are pretty cool to watch.

His old lady prolly made him sell it b/c it's a chick magnet.

We have a new thread, moltie.

Thanks man.

Here's one of mine recently spat out onto the virtual page. The Thief I stopped and stood for you pockets turned inside out just lint frowning desperate you are your hand pressed to my heart backed into bricks but a lottery was won

Hopefully, production will match demand. I would hope that is the goal of every manufacturer, but GM has hurt themselves so many times in the past because of an imbalance.
