I initially was going to delete it but after reading it I wondered.

Is there any accuracy in this ?


No, there is not.

The Snopes rebuttle is fatally flawed. It takes the same amount of time
to drive across the country????

Since when the battery is run down it runs on the gas engine, yes, it
can go cross country just like any IC vehicle.

But the Volt is not designed for x-country use. It is optimised for the
large number of Americans who commute a dozen miles or so daily, who can
charge it during off peak hours every night, but still offers a back-up
plan so you never suffer the inability to go when you need to regardless
of the charging time.

So then you agree with the original statement and have found the Snopes
to be a mish mash.

Thanks for your agreement.

OH yeah, you can fit it with a Gun rack too.

""Seriously, when was the last time you saw a gun rack in ANY sedan?" He
adds that the Volt "can do a lot of things, but if you are looking for a
vehicle for your next hunting trip, it may not be your first choice. "

Ive had gun racks in each and every vehicle Ive ever owned. Including
the last 3 Volvos.

Hunting trips? Are gun racks only for hunting trips?

Odd that.

I often carry a combat shotgun in my racks. Hardly a hunting weapon.

Hardly. Its sadly more of a mish mash than the original article
