General Motors opened up orders for the Chevrolet Volt to all 50 states today, lowering the base price for the 2012 model by about $1,000 and adding four option packages. The 2012 Volt will start at $39,995, including delivery, and customers may be eligible for a $7,500 federal tax credit. GM was able to lower the base price because the car has more optional content now that it's available nationally, the automaker said today in a statement. The 2011 Volt had been available in eight states and Washington, D.C., and only had three option packages. GM is expanding Volt ordering as it prepares to add two shifts worth 2,500 jobs to the Detroit-Hamtramck plant that builds the car. Volt engineers are seeking to cut the car's cost through powertrain and production improvements, which will mostly be used to make the car profitable, rather than slash the price for consumers. GM plans this year to build 16,000 of the Volt and its European version, the Opel Ampera. That includes about 3,500 for overseas delivery and 2,500 as demos at dealerships. Next year, GM plans to build 60,000 Volts at its Detroit-Hamtramck plant, with 45,000 designated for the U.S. Detroit-Hamtramck this spring discontinued its other two cars, the Cadillac DTS and Buick Lucerne, leaving it free to build just Volts until the 2013 Malibu starts production next year. The factory will also assemble the next-generation Chevrolet Impala, expected to start production by 2013. The plant is in a four-week shutdown to update for Volt and Malibu production. After it restarts, the factory will start adding the second shift of workers, with the third to start at an undisclosed future date.

And still, nobody anywhere wants it.
war has to do something for entertainment. The voices in his head aren't speaking to him and his imaginary friends have found reasons not to come over anymore.
Are you every correct about anything? Still waiting...where are the Departments of Defense, State and Justice found withing the USCON?
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" Yep. And whats really ironic is its pickup trucks and muscle cars that are carrying the auto industry.
Proxy IP's are amusing.....lmao
Thanks for the laughs, Bozo. You really work for the money, don't you?

I'm seeing Chevy Camaros everywhere. Needless to say, everyone else here in Oklahoma drives a Red pick-up.

You see a lot of things, I'm sure, Rudy. The fact is, the Volt is selling and there is demand for it. The fact that Boofer agrees with you should have been the final clue that you are wrong.
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" You're the one seeing these ridiculous golf carts driving around the roads of America in numbers, weenie. I'd call you the other euphemism for 'dick', but you'd go running to Stone like a little girl, complaining I was identifying you, if not defining you.

You really are stupid, Rudy. To bring you up to speed: It's the car's first year. Sales have been better than they imagined and so they're ramping up production to 60K next year.
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" That must be why dealers are marking them up an additional $10,000 or so. http://libertysflame.com/cgi-bin/readart.cgi?ArtNum=20920&Disp=0
LMAO!!! Translation: nobody's buying this turd, so we have to lower the price to bring in the suckers. These government idiots think that Americans will willingly buy a shit- sandwich, if they lower the price by $1000. They could lower it by $30,000, and it'll STILL be a shit-sandwich, no matter HOW much you try to dress it up.
List of those unable to think: Bumper sticker on DwarF's car: And that sucker is the taxpayer.... Seems like I read an article about our illustrious/idiotic government was going to buy a shit load of them for it's employees.... The big problem with that is..... where are you going to plug the damn thing in when Obozo gets done getting rid of all the Nuclear/coal/gas fired power plants...

They're dropping the price and now they are raising the price. Do you know anything at all, princess?
war has to do something for entertainment. The voices in his head aren't speaking to him and his imaginary friends have found reasons not to come over anymore.
They are expanding the line to include both HIGHER priced models with more features and LOWER priced models with less features. Do you know anything about demand?
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" You and Boofer done with your meeting of the AV Club yet?
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" General Motors Confirms 2,500 New Jobs Coming at Chevrolet Volt Plant Detroit assembly line will quadruple plug-in production, add Chevy Malibu and Impala models. by Paul A. Eisenstein on May.25, 2011 ollowing up on an earlier announcement that it would invest $2 billion in 17 U.S. plants, General Motors today provided additional details confirming it will add 2,500 jobs at the Detroit plant producing the well-publicized Chevrolet Volt plug-in hybrid. Known as the “Poletown” plant, the factory will add a second shift later this year and is expected to introduce a third shift later on as it takes on several additional product lines. Among other things, the factory is beginning to roll out a European version of the Volt, called Opel Ampera, which GM believes will increase demand enough to support the production of 60,000 plug-ins next year – about four times more than it expects to produce in 2011. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Yep...they are hiring people and expanding the model line from 16K to 60K because no one is buying the car.
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" Wow. A 3:1 ratio. I must have struck a nerve or you hate to be ignored. I'm guessing both.

Huh? Babble on your own time, Rudy and save the bandwidth.

Proxy IP's are amusing.....lmao
Did you miss the linked article talking about dealer markups or are you really this stupid all the time?
These are nice cars that fill a niche. Eugene uses these for parking control duties and this saves them money. They are a lot cheaper and easier to use compared to their conventional small gasoline powered vehicles. In a congested metropolitan area small efficient vehicles make a great deal of sense. As does the use of every range of bicycle from three speed antique to a truck bike that can deliver many things faster and more efficiently than a motorized vehicle.
No more amusing than you making this shit up and ***thinking*** people will believe you.
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" Now don't go confusing the libTURDS with FACTS B. They love their little delusions more than they love REALITY. I mean REALLY, these FOOLS specialize in FAILURE. In fact these libTURD FOOLS are experts at FAILURE. They love "Collectivism", proven through ALL of human history to be a FAILURE. They love "BIG gooberment", proven through ALL of human history to be a FAILURE. They LOVE central/command control economies. proven through ALL of human history to be a FAILURE. They LOVE TYRANNY. They HATE individual LIBERTY. They are just useful FOOLS/TOOLS/WHORES for TYRANNY. libTURDISM is the philosophy of the deeply stupid."
Spoiled, stupid and ignorant, brain dead phuckwads, libTURD fools, tools, and idiots, are the real sickness; the messiah "king" obammy and his regime are only the symptoms.
Which is why I speak glowingly of a free enterprise endeavorer seeking to develop and market a product? Who tells you all this bizarre shit? Do you have imaginary voices echoing in the empty head bone cavern of yours'?
LoL! You gibbering phuckwad, it's always about YOU isn't it loser? Tell me phuckwad, does the demonRAT partee/"progressive" agenda concentrate on BUILDING the so called "collective"? YES it does LIAR. You little fool, try your clumsy and ignorant LIES and spin on the air head co-eds that you usually target with your Weiner "peter tweeter" act b!tch. TRY to tell me, and us ALL, that what I said does NOT reflect the dogma of the left. LOL! You pitiful little libTURD b!tch.
Spoiled, stupid and ignorant, brain dead phuckwads, libTURD fools, tools, and idiots, are the real sickness; the messiah "king" obammy and his regime are only the symptoms.
Ask a Democrat, not me. Spin your delusions at them. I don't belong to that party.
LoL! Are you claiming NOW to NOT be a self styled "progressive", you LYING POS? Are you claiming NOW to NOT be a self styled "libTURD", you LYING POS? Are you claiming NOW to NOT be a self styled "person" of the political "left", you LYING POS? Are you claiming NOW to NOT be a self styled "person" of the so called "counter culture", you LYING POS?

I'm seeing you living in a world full of strange delusions and trying to be scarier than the barking, chained old dog tethered to the porch you are. Why?
LOL! Gee willikers, lookie there .... The little cowardly LYING libTURD is now trying to deny that "he" is an infamous raving "progressive" b!tch. Who saw THAT coming eh? LMAO! "libTURDISM is the philosophy of the STOOOPID." (and, apparently of COWARDS and LIARS also.)

Nah, Just saying that when I contribute information about a free enterprise firm developing a product, that is a bizarre time to go on a rant about the evils of socialism. Face it M. Doggie Dog, reality and your brain housing group are not friends.

Hey I can vouch for him... Yes, in fact he is that stupid all the time.
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" False. Over the expected lifetime of these toys, the costs exceed a normal vehicle. And again, the CARBON FOOTPRINT left behind during the manufacturing process is GIGANTIC. And totally undermines the alleged reason for building them in the first place.
Proxy IP's are amusing.....lmao
Your fantasies about manufacturing are your problem.
Boofer has a lot of "fantasies"..."the costs exceed a normal vehicle" being yet another one. IN fact, the projected cost is that a Volt will be cheaper to operate and maintain than a "normal vehicle"...
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" Exactly. And I am familiar with the facility currently being used to manufacture this Eugene, OR made vehicle. It too is very economical to build, and the people who designed it are incredibly ecologically savvy on ow to keep it's cost down and it's production footprint small and shallow.
The concept of the Volt from day1 has been "green as possible". This is the problem when Rush is your main source of "news".
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" A short abortive blog Mad Dog did as his old nick at TOS which was Skull Stomper. A 'friend' of his at TOS gave it to me. It seems he not only didn't have many friends there, and those he did think he had were relieved and happy he was banned. Thought you might find it's small bit of insight about him would be interesting. Looking at his home town on the map for example shows him to be a stone's throw from Anchorage. So he's not 'roughing it' in a remote rural area nearly as much as he historically claims he is.
Thanks...should I ever shed this veil of boredom regarding all things MadDog I might take a look. And why am I not surprised that old spittle mouth has no friends...ANYWHERE?
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" I was amused Stone took to using his *spit* and other potty mouth tactics at 4UM. The two have a lot in common. I thought him insane when I watched him as 'Skull Stomper' there and he was so outrageous all his posts were nuked when he was zotted. Usually they just turn an account off at FR.
No fantasy here at all. The carbon footprint is HUGE. Look it up, mr enviromentalist. If you are remotely objective, after looking up the data, you will agree with me.
Proxy IP's are amusing.....lmao
The only daily fantasy on this website is wee willie's homosexual one's.
Proxy IP's are amusing.....lmao
OK, look at the Mitsubishi iMIEV fully electric vehicle. There's also a petrol version which is to all intents and purposes the exact same vehicle but for a different drive train system. Mitsubishi shows the differences between the gas and electirc model's carbon footprint as striking. And not in the way you present it. Petrol Version: 0.056l/km or 0.54kWh/km. Electric Version: 160km range, 16kWh battery; therefore 0.1kWh/km
Why don't you link us to the data, Dick.
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" Saw this after posting. End of discussion if this is your focus.
You have me filtered, Rick...remember? How's the chili today? Watch that cliff behind you while you're out combat pistoling... [snicker]
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" With a name like Dick of course he's focused on cock.
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" I decided to try to take him serious in an argument even though his point was a bizarro world factoid only a Hummer junkie could love. With some people like this guy, the leap of faith to do this is just not worth the effort. ;-)
He pulls this crap when he's getting his ass kicked in a discussion...
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" Psssst. Topic is the Chevy Volt, and American made vehicle.
Proxy IP's are amusing.....lmao
You helped the cheap shot along, and now you want to act self rightgeous, Mikey. You're going to end the discussion anyway, because you can't refute the simple fact the CHEVY VOLT is horrific for the enviroment, far more damaging than ANY SUV ever made, long term. Do what ya want.
Proxy IP's are amusing.....lmao
Yeah, right; as War said, sho me a citation. As these vehicles become more common their current economic advantage over gasoline cars will just get better. We have quite a few volts locally, and everyone I have talked to with one has nothing but raves and recomendations for it, Dickie.
With some people like this guy, the leap of faith to do this is just not worth the effort. ;-) So fuck off, mikey.
Proxy IP's are amusing.....lmao
I keep the dwarf on filter, as he knows. Doesn't stop him from sending over 40,000 post my way over the past five years though....he's as sick as Anthony Weiner in that aspect. Look up the date yourself, mikey. That way, you'll NEVER FORGET IT. Works with fourth graders, should work with you. Enjoy.
Proxy IP's are amusing.....lmao
I did the math, Mr. Hyperbole. Had he dedicated every day toward the end of posting to you, that would be about twenty-two posts daily. Besides, considering Neal banned you because you posted so much with so little to say, this is hypocrisy on top of hyperbole. Are you going for hysteria next?
You stated, give citation to back your words.
Here's some data regarding the carbon footprint of gas vs. electric cars during manufacture process. Estimated carbon emissions during production (tons of CO2) Gasoline vehicle: 5.6 Hybrid vehicle: 6.5 Plug-in hybrid vehicle: 6.7 Battery electric hybrid: 8.8 Estimated lifecycle carbon emissions (tons of CO2) Gasoline vehicle: 24 Hybrid vehicle: 21 Plug-in hybrid vehicle: 19 Battery electric hybrid vehicle: 19 Proportion of emissions during production (%) Gasoline vehicle: 23% Hybrid vehicle: 31% Plug-in hybrid vehicle: 35% Battery electric hybrid vehicle: 46%
Thanks, I wouldn't mind the URL too to best compare it with my sources. I know that one thing I factor in here is as production of these vehicles goes up, the manufacturing costs and consumption will drop quite a bit. Not to mention the recycling of a hybrid or electric is easier and more comprehensive in terms of what can be recycled than your average gasoline machine. I generally ride a bicycle around town. If I go to Portland I try to take the train which is am option I can bring my bicycles with me when I use it. If I drive I usually take a motorcycle. If I do ever get a new car though, it will be an electric. Historically I've generally driven air cooled VWs as I can take them apart and put them together almost blindfolded - including the process of re-building the engines. But we as a nation really need to get away from our dependence on oil, which is something we are going to have to do if we want to reduce the influence of the oil producing nations in our lives.
Thanks...I knew his comment was BS...the production difference isn't all that different and lifetime it's much lower. As Plug ins and Battery hybrids become more popular and production methods refined the footprint is only going to go down.
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" This was the article I was going to post. You'll never get anything out of Boofer. He's more interested in disrupting a website than adding to it. It's why he has had to own websites to avoid being banned.
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" My count right now is....0 Boofer. It's just so unlike you to lie. Love, America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" Badeye lies? Say it ain't so.
Here you go. I agree the per unit carbon footprint should decrease as the production numbers increase.
Besides, considering Neal banned you because you posted so much with so little to say, this is hypocrisy on top of hyperbole. Yep, about 22 posts, more or less per day. At least you got that about right, Mikey. Neil McIver? rotflmao. He'll always be my personal bitch in any forum. You are talking about a asswipe that give himself a laughable title at LP. And a guy who talks big talk about fightin 'da man!' only to fold like a cheap suit, by his own description.
Proxy IP's are amusing.....lmao
I see you still have nothing to add to any forum you belong to freddie. And sorry, neither you nor fraud of NYC are worth a lie to me.
Proxy IP's are amusing.....lmao
badlie is hysterical war. He says every day for five years you have burdened him with twenty two posts a day. I mean, how do you find the time? ROTFLMAO!
I mean, how do you find the time? His employers are beginning to wonder the same, now that you bring it up, Mikey. (roaring with laughter)
Proxy IP's are amusing.....lmao
Yet how many times have YOU posted this?
If it is so traumatic to suspect someone posts more bad posts then you, bozo him, bozo. Look on the bright side, you could be in prison with Steve the Mad Dog as your roomie bugging you to stop stalling and to get to the job of washing his socks.
Especially hysterical that he whines over me posting to him...he spends so much time "talking" about someone that he claims he doesn't care about.
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" You would know this how, Boofer? (roaring louder with laughter)
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" Chuckles...as if...
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" He has plenty of time to investigate this. I mean, it's not like he spends his time running a business or anything like that.
You could have stopped there...
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" I see you still have nothing to add to any forum you belong to freddie Yet how many times have YOU posted this? Only when freddie chimes in, especially when nobody even thought to ask him to partake. Its what freddie does, so I note it occasionally.
Proxy IP's are amusing.....lmao
Cupcake, he is on bozo. The only way I know he's here is when he posts another of his endless vanity threads...ranting about other posters, or the many websites that have banned his silly ass. As for 'bad posts' mikey, nobody can supplant YOU in that regard...although Mertz does seem inclined to give you a run for your money.
Proxy IP's are amusing.....lmao
No investigating needed, his whining to site administrators across the internet is the stuff of kook legend, mikey. You should see some of the insane emails he offers up, not realizing he's 'known' and therefore his 'poor little abused me' schtick causes quite a bit of laughter...and to be blunt, wondering about what the fuck happened to him as a child to cause this sort of thing. His employers have been wondering for years...more so these past few months from what I understand. Maybe its bullshit...then again, maybe its not. He sure got upset when a site admin contacted him directly, on the job, and demonstrated 'anonymity' is a relative thing.
Proxy IP's are amusing.....lmao
And you can count his posts without seeing them. Aren't you just so special to be that amazing.
Still don't get the concept of a public board, Boofer?
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" Nope, the sites he indulges his curious need do however...and marvel at it.
Proxy IP's are amusing.....lmao
Oceander has stated several times that he is not "site admin", Boofer. And, as is required of me when I receive such an email, I informed IT of the email who turned it over to legal who wrote a letter to Google stating that an attempt at identity theft was done using a gmail account. IF Oceander is a member of the Bar in the State of NY - as I have been told that he is - he really should have known better than to do what he did. But stop being stupid. He knows who I am because of you, Dick. His employers have been wondering for years...more so these past few months from what I understand. Maybe its bullshit...then again, maybe its not. For years you've been claiming I don't have job. I am also under contract for the next two years 3 months. Let them wonder all that they want to. But thank you oh so much for caring. How's the chili today?
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" Wha...huh? That's almost a thought...
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" That was always a classic. He was gonna show them. Only to come back to the forum and say, "well, I went ahead and got a driver's license, but I could've showed 'em if I wanted to"
Now, I know I’m not going to change the minds of any of the True Believers…those who read all of Reverend Al’s sermons, and say things like, “You know, global warming can mean warmer OR colder, wetter OR drier, cloudier OR sunnier, windier OR calmer, …”. Can I get an ‘amen’??
Its what freddie does, so I note it occasionally. A poster has to be invited to reply? I didn't know that, but it's something you also need to remember.
Boofer...he OWNED your ass...he would leave you a sniveling mess inside of two posts...
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" Actions define the man..in this case perfectly.

Was that because an Agent of the IRS was after him?
America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" Was that because an Agent of the IRS was after him? I can only surmise.

America...My Kind Of Place... "I truly am not that concerned about [bin Laden]..." "THE MILITIA IS COMING!!! THE MILITIA IS COMING!!!" You mean this Badeye is the real Badeye? And not "Badeye after 5" or "Badeye on drugs" (or maybe "Badeye off drugs") or any of the other amusing puppets set up in his honor? I really hesitate to engage in conversation as it plainly wouldn't be that. I banned him for the reason that conversation was the very thing he avoided. Posting to LP was something that, if he wasn't paid to do, was something he should have been paid for. Thankfully, for LP's sake, Goldi finally realized both the lack of value and the liability he is. I plainly will not have the stamina or time to spar with him. I've much more important things to do, and no good would come of it anyway -- such is the limitation of these forums. He won't change, and neither will I so what's the point? As for my "folding like a cheap suit" or lawn chair or what have you, (whatever his latest colorful description for me is), I freely admit that I did retreat from a court fight. I can only claim credit in recognizing that the deck was indeed stacked against me in that room, that the judge did not want to hear my case and therefore chances of winning it was less than what I had projected up front. Indeed the charges were more than simply driving without a license but in fact involved a obstruction of justice which, unlike the former charge, was an actual criminal accusation which raised the stakes to an absurd level. I had in fact already grown weary of the whole thing some months before, realizing that trying to make a difference by standing up for what's morally right was quite futile in modern day America. Perhaps that's something Badeye learned long before me, in which case he may have a right to gloat. My pessimistic conclusion, whether it was projected on my part or actually accurate, was that the the judicial system in the USA is quite inept and disfunctional. It's an institution with a life of it's own, or perhaps more akin to a zombie-like "undead" life to it, which will keep moving in it's mindless manner and continue to play it's part in the moral decline of America. If I can claim credit for anything relating to that episode, it's that I was honest enough to be transparent about it as I was at all steps related to driver licensing, which is something my critics have never given me credit for, but nonetheless something I should, without any argument, get credit for. But I obviously never held my breath for that. Some critics, such as the aforementioned, have their own agenda's, after all, and being honest and giving credit where credit is due is not one of them. That alone satisfies me that I'm the better man. And yes, I am in Ecuador as I type. It's a beautiful country, especially at this dryer time of year at 8000 feet in perpetual spring with great views of mountains near and far, and not one on the verge of an economic disaster, if that is indeed what the USA is on the verge of, which indications from many sources say is at hand. Frankly, being in the USA is a liability for those there and being out of the country is far from bizarre, but rather more prudent. Ecuador's economy is much less sophisticated but I suspect that will be an asset in the event of a global crash, as simpler economies will not break as much. For those that remain in the states, I can only wish the best. Thanks for the ping there, war. Neil
Hey Neil... Boofer is indeed THE Boofer...the same sniveling mass of lying shit that you banned from LP. I still laugh at how you showed up to "congratulate" him on reaching 60K posts or some insane number that I never even approached even though I posted regularly for 3 years after Goldi banned his snooping ass for good. You were cordial from the onset with that post and were still able to reduce him to a whining oversated sac of pus within 2-3 posts. Always marveled at your ability to do so...as Boofer says, "The LP database doesn't lie." Your ability to have him publically display his goofies is well documented there. One look at his "contribution" to this thread reveals him as the same liar that he has always been. Please note: Due to your account status (Probationed), you may make 10 comments per day. You have made 1 comment(s) so far today.

General Motors opened up orders for the Chevrolet Volt to all 50 states today, lowering the base price for the 2012 model by about $1,000 and adding four option packages.
