    Bolt Review after 2 weeks - Purch 12/31/16

    My philosophy is to believe zero of what the dealer says. In fact, the less they tell me the better. I do lots of research before getting to any buying stage, and I do side by side comparisons of option packages (GM provides this).

    Or maybe a snowmobile suit. :D

    The Chevy Bolt Requires Little Maintenance

    600 mile, 3K, 5K service? :o What are you driving, something from the 1950's? Make sure you get a fresh set of points and condenser in that thing. No wonder you are dying to go electric. Hit the page down key for the rest of the recommended service.

    Road trip in the Bolt: Round trip LA to SF

    I enjoyed the blog. Great hearing about the trip. I was wondering what it would be like to do the LA to SF trip in a Bolt. I could not drive in 45 degree weather without heat. I'd freeze to death. I hope you do some more trips. I'd love to see some data with speeds at normal flow of...

    Analyst says 30,000 to 80,000 Chevy Bolt EVs could sell in first full model year

    Anyone calling the Bolt a "compliance car" is just trolling, and should be ignored.

    The Chevy Bolt Requires Little Maintenance

    Brake fluid change, not necessary? Tires only need balancing when installed? Hinges and other body parts don't need lubrication? Windshield washer fluid filled with "soap and water"? This is why you never get your car information from a website. In fact, the worst I have seen are the...

    Nice review. What did you end up ordering?

    12-volt accessory battery charge model?

    I believe the poster is talking about the actual 12 volt battery, rather than the 12 volt accessory outlet in the interior.

    Turn signals on rear bumper?

    Actually, this is a very good point.

    How is there already a Bolt bumper on Ebay?

    Except test vehicles don't end up at a junkyard. They go back to GM. This is a bit of a mystery.

    More exaggeration. https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2016-09-21/tesla-sued-by-car-owners-in-norway-as-speed-not-insane-enough Congratulations. You are the first person to be added to my block list. Don't bother responding. I won't see it.

    OK, it's the "delivery". Put the pipe down.

    Bolt EV gripes

    Now you are going to put in "delivery". Gears, axle shafts, and tires, sounds like about the same delivery. Other than the higher end Teslas, which have a lot of horsepower, I can go out an buy a $35,000 455 horsepower Camaro SS, and it will beat every electric out there, and I don't care...

    The Chevy Bolt Requires Little Maintenance

    You're full of it. Go to page 310 of the Owner's Manual.

    OK, Einstein. I'm glad you have rewritten Newton's Laws of Physics. The car doesn't car what propulsion system it has. The performance is determined by the power source horsepower transmitted to the drive wheels.
