    I saw a commerical for the chevy Volt. They said it "goes" (for the lack of a better word, its late give me a break) for around 12 dollars a day...that isn't cheaper than my heavy ass brick driving down the road. If I put 50 bucks in my tank a week that is like what 8 bucks a day...4 bucks less than a fuel free car..thats stupid...

    Maybe it gets great milage but that's it's depreciation value per day -$12. lol. Doing that math it's very plausible. 4k a year depreciation.
    Except i know that's not the case.

    8 is for fuel. I am thinking the commercial is suggesting the 12 includes cost of the vehicle.

    I could be wrong.

    If we ran everything with solar power, someone would complain we are using too much of it.
