My new daily

[Chris GTO TT]

Nice! I still like the idea of these.

[ChargerX3]

Nice, but i thought you didnt like Volts.

[vr4]

keep us updated. my electric went up by about 30 bucks but my insurance went down by 50ish every 6 and my fuel bill went down by about 250/mo.

Not a major fan but Danielle likes them and it's for both of us.

Gets almost 60 miles on electric before going to gas. Then still gets about 40 mpg. We are currently spending about $400-500 a month on gas so figured this would actually save us money as we both can drive it and she can take it to work. We still have the truck, vette, and her Subaru.

I should have charged a finders fee

Congrats. Looks good.

and now i'm looking at them cause reality is they fit my normal daily driving to a "T"

Wow. 11k?! Didn’t you have a volt at some point already?

I'm not sure how to answer that.

[Chris GTO TT]

Right?

[tabasco122]

classic coop lmao

[Jeff V.]

What do you think about the dead pedal placement? That's probably the one thing that annoyed me when I test drove one. It felt like it pushed my right leg about 2 inches further back than it should have.

[Duck Vader]

Ya. It's annoying but I've been in worse. Can slip my foot between the brake and dead pedal to stretch out my leg. Or I pull it up and keep knee bent so off the pedal.

[Duck Vader]

I'm probably going to pull it in the garage while Danielle is in Pennsylvania the first week of September and do a good polish on it. Has some swirls.

This was a 1 owner owned it's whole life around the Seattle area. Full service records.

[Duck Vader]

Called tint shop this morning. They said bring it in. They had a open slot in an hour.

So got that done.

[Chris GTO TT]

Wheels need to be a darker silver

[Duck Vader]

Ya they are not in great shape either. Curb rash on a couple of them. Has newer tires on it from les schwab. Road control 2 I think. Never heard of them before.

I know it is not a vette like everyone else seems to have, but at least it is a GM, right? :d err:

Anyway...

2013 Volt Premium in Summit White

With:
Enhanced Safety Packages 1 & 2
Back Up Camera
Navigation
Bose System
Leather
etc.
Pretty much all the bells and whistles.

Been averaging just over 42 miles per charge and have used less than a gallon of gas total so far.

I still can't get over how quiet it is and I am still getting used to the single speed tranny.

Only thing I want to do is eventually tint the windows.

These are not the greatest pics as it is in the garage and the lighting is not the greatest.

Literally first post of this thread Coop…

[DCIV]

I was being funny man. Sorry.

Getting better tires on Tuesday.

Going to try Goodyear ElectricDrive 2.

Current ones are non lrr les schwab tires on 3 wheels and a michelin on the 4th. Currently only getting low 40s electric range. This should help get some back. Won't be driven in really bad weather so no worried about snow traction. The tundra or forester will be used more during that.
