so why is this car so exciting? i'm hearing $40k for the volt. i understand the whole if you drive less then 40 miles a day you never have to use any gas. but how long till you save enough on gas to make up the difference of the $40k price tag?
i was really excited for this car when i was hearing 600 to 700 miles a tank. not really that excited anymore.

depends how far you drive and the price of gas and how efficient your alternative is. Plus there are also probably going to be government rebates to reduce the cost of the car. And I might be wrong, but I believe that GM is willing to sell the volt at a loss: that would cost them less than to have the volt fail.
