[quote user="howmus"]Speaking of maintainance.... Ulrich, I had to take my Volt in for it's first MAJOR service at 7500 miles. Yep, they had to rotate the tires. Next year they may have to do an oil change.... Actually even if it doesn't need the oil change yet I will have them do it so I won't have to pay for it to be done in another year after that.... At the rate I am going it may need to have the brakes serviced in, oh 35 years..... Maybe. Doubt if I will be driving then anyway...... Whistling[/quote] Ray, for that very reason I´d love to have a electric car, but none of the models available in thois country are anywhere near to what I can afford to spend on transportation. The "cheaper" models do not include the battery, which you have to rent at a monthly price which is more than quadruple of what my gas bill is. Things may change in the next 10-15 years, but at the moment, electric or even hybrid cars are for enthusiasts with thick wallets only.
