    Bolt Front Seats Recall Media Campaign

    I like the seats just fine. And I'm not exactly skinny. I don't like the fact that the seatbelts are not height adjustable. But the seats are fine.

    Finally picked up my bolt today. I really like it. And the seats are not at all uncomfortable. It handles well. Worth the wait.

    No tax credit in 2017

    Try telling that to the CEO of fiat Chrysler who keeps whining that he loses 14 grand on each car. No, the reason manufacturers are building electric cars is that without offering one in their lineup, they can't sell any - with a capital any- cars in California. I would not call that enthusiasm.

    I'm not saying they are not making any. We have a 2014 Leaf ourselves. I just don't think that they are enthusiastic about building them.

    I don't think any car maker is into electric cars.

    Ah. I see what you mean. But Nissan makes more than the leaf. And they would not have to quit making it. I don't see that it would hurt them. As a whole, Congress and the cheeto king are opposed to anything even remotely green. Their leadership will promise them something else.

    Got an email from Wentworth. My car is still in Michigan, waiting to be loaded on a train. Allegedly, I'll get an ETA once it is on the train. I believe that when I see it. Just getting that non-information above took me writing a strongly worded email. And of course, ETA in Portland is a far...

    No tax credit in 2017

    Nope. Republican senators from TN will stop it. Tax credits aren't going away (though they may put a MSRP limit to prevent Model S/X getting it). I'm curious what motivation senators from TN (did I read that correctly???) have to stop that? Tennessee? Really?

    Purchase / Lease details

    I dunno. I have owned my electric car since August 2013. There has been no decline in the battery. But more importantly, I believe leasing is a bad deal. I have done it once and would never do it again. Problem was I had to move and could not take the car with me for a variety of reasons. So I...

    I emailed Wentworth yesterday. Crickets. This morning I emailed Wilsonville. I'm really disappointed in how the dealers act. I understand that they do not have much control over what they get when, but they have zero interest in staying connected with the customer, providing updates. When I...

    Wanted: Bolt Premier for immediate delivery

    With brand new all electric cars it is usually different. When I bought my fiat in 2013, it was only available in California. I flew to Los Angeles to buy it and it was registered there. I shipped it to Oregon. The dealer even made me sign a paper that I would not take the car out of state. I...

    Wanted: Bolt Premier for immediate delivery

    It is possible to buy a car from California if you live in another state. But it is expensive.

    I don't even know if mine is at the rail terminal. Sales guy at Wentworth won't return emails. Makes me feel warm and fuzzy about them.

    No tax credit in 2017

    I'll give you a piece of advice. See, I pre-ordered mine and I believe for above reasons that it makes a huge difference when I take delivery. For you, I'd keep a close watch on Congress. Their tax plan is one of the first to go through (they are already writing it). That and repealing ACA are...

    No tax credit in 2017

    This is only your second post in this forum. I don't know how much else you have read. My dealership tried to offer me tax advice stating that the credit would apply to 2016 even if I don't take delivery until next year. That's when I started to research. I found out that the statement was...

    I don't have to introduce any evidence. I'm stating my opinion and am citing the opinion of a tax attorney who voiced it on public airwaves. You are free to do as you please, purchase the car or not. I have the same freedom. I have no "proof" of anything. I think that anyone who is NOT getting...

    I don't think it matters how it came to be. We are seeing an "unpresidented" backlash against anything that even smells like green energy.
