While they were busy going bankrupt and using taxpayer money to stay afloat, GM decided that maybe there was something to this hybrid thing. Maybe, just maybe, the future wasn’t in 3 ton quad-cab dually pickups that soccer moms couldn’t park in the Wal-Mart parking lot without utilizing an 11 point turning system.
Enter the Chevy Volt. GM states that it gets 230 miles to the gallon of gas. While they’ve already proven that they are bad at business, we can now see that they’re equally bad at math. See, in less than a day, mainstream media picked up on the mathematical shenanigans GM used to pull that particular number out of their ass.
Since they couldn’t build a car with good gas mileage, they figured they’d just throw a number on the window sticker and if you’re going to bullshit the consumer, do it like you mean it.
Buy American.
