by EVehicle October 6, 2008 5:26 AM PDT: Every time I get a call from a car dealer I give them the same response, "No Plug - No Deal". I hope the dealers will get the message and will pass it up the line to the product planners that their customers are voting with their feet and going else where. My 21 year old Oldsmobile is just fine for now. It replaced the EV1 that was taken from me. I am sitting out of the new car market until I have choices of vehicles with plugs. Not very complicated stand to take. Pass the message along.

For 60 Minutes, this was not a bad piece. Tell Bob Lutz this is there last chance to get me back in the showroom.; Like this Reply to this comment
