Might open my own dealership soon the way I'm going through them all.
... I moved back to Wisconsin a few months ago and my new commute is 34 miles round trip, 36 if my wife and I carpool. We had a Lexus IS350 and a Acura RSX (my old commuter / beater) after I sold my other IS350.
.... did some looking into an EV of some sort to cut out some gas. Gas prices dropped and so did the price of used EV's. I reaaaally wanted a Tesla, but my commute length (gas savings) couldn't justify the payment, so I ended up getting a 2011 Chevy Volt to replace the RSX. 2011 Volt with 40k miles OTD for $14,500.
I can charge at work if needed and its only been 3 days with it, but even with single digit temps I'm getting like 215 mpg. Would be zero gas used but the engine kicks on because of the cold. I seriously dig this little thing. Really hoping 7-8 months of the year I'll never need gas for my work commute.
