Although there seems to be some negativity in here by the closed minded folks, I for one want to say congrats on your new purchase! I'm not going to lie - knowing I could get a Volt and lower my monthly car payment by $40 a month is very attractive to me. I have a 65 mile round trip drive to and from work and the thought of being able to only use gas for 5 miles each day is highly attractive. It's another perk of working at General Motors HQ since there's charging stations for Volt owners to use - I could charge overnight at home, drive to work, charge while I'm at work, and drive home.
The numbers Volt owners are getting for "gas mileage" is truly amazing. There's a website called voltstats.net where Volt owners are tracking their mileage - both electric and gas. Right now the site's average MPG is 119... booyah, that's awesome.
