Chevy Volt takes 27 years before owners save money

  1. I have a dodge diesel, great truck but if I didn't need the pulling power I would of just gotten a GM 1/2 ton v8 gas pickup. I used to have the GM 5.7 converted gas to diesel pickup and that thing was amazing, 30mpg on the highway loaded down. I know a lot of people had problems with those but I was lucky and had a good one.
    For what I do I have to have range and power so electric doesn't work unless I bought an extra car just to run around town.

    30 MPG loaded?

    Bullshit.

    Unless you've used your astronomically high IQ to invent some new internal combustion technology that is just pure fabrication.

  3. Hey baker's dozen boy, I don't think math is your specialty, you'd better leave the simple math to those of us who know how to use a calculator.
    Now run along son, leave the work talk to us men.

    Ah yes, government data to support your claim. I always believe the government. Good play.

    Naw, you're a damned liar.

    My 7.3 liter Powerstroke Diesel can get 21 mpg unloaded but pulling my car trailer with my 2000 lb 914-6 GT brings it down to about 14-16 and that is not a heavy load. The truck can tow 21,000 lbs according to its CGVWR.

    You are 100% completely full of shit littlearrow. A previcator and fabricator of internet stories. Pathetic. Your titanic IQ should have told you that you wouldn't get away with that.

    You are caught in a lie.

  8. You are so stupid and arrogant it's pathetic man. What an insecure man you are. For the record when I said loaded it was the bed loaded full and catching wind about a foot above the cab, it was a gutless wonder and couldn't tow much, but it did get 30 mpg as did other GM 5.7 diesel conversion owners did. You really need to think and research a little before you open your mouth. You might be a scientist in real life but you're a dumb fuck to talk to.

    30 mpg loaded? Nope, that is a lie and you are damned liar.

    Your dishonesty has been noted.

    In my experience people who are willing to lie about small things have no hesitation to lie about big things either.
