General Motors - another rip off
I saw on the morning news today General Motors will start producing its electric car at the end of 2010 and it will be available for everyone to buy.
And, they are so proud of how they designed this thing to be clean and efficient. I was interested until they said they want $40,000 a piece for this junk.
So, any savings you may realize in lower gasoline purchases will be outweighed by the ridiculous sticker price (which will be paid to the tune of about $500 a month for five years) and the cost of the electricity it will use. Electricity is going up too folks. Making electricity to feed these cars may have more negative effects on the environment than burning.
If you saw this news broadcast, the media (as usual) sucked up to General Motors making this vehicle sound like such a good idea for everyone. Bias!
Guess what…charging $40,000 for that thing is nothing less than rape in my opinion!
It’s small, unsafe, and made of plastic and tin. I’m willing to bet General Motors can make tons of money if they sell them for $10,000.
Screw them!
More rip off crap. Don’t buy them.
