At least 34,776 Eco-fiends want the Chevy Volt

If a list compiled by a Chevy Volt enthusiast is accurate, GM is going to sell a eco-friendly boat load of Chevy Volts. Lyle Dennis, a New York neurologist with way to much time, gathered the 34,776 (at last count) on his website GM-Volt.com over the last year. The one glaring issue though, is that the average price they were willing to pay for the GM wunderkind worked out to $31k. Rumor is, GM is hoping to sell the vehicle for $40k — easy math.
So maybe not all of those signatures will buy a Volt, but chances are, a lot of tree-hugging, deep-pocketed motor heads are going to have one plugged into their garage real soon.

Sign me up! The Volt is more than just a plug-in hybrid and you cannot simply assume everybody on the list are tree-huggers. The car itself is perhaps the most radically designed car GM Chevy has produced in the past decade and will be one-of-a-kind on the streets like the Prius. People like to stand out from the crowd and are willing to pay the extra buck to do that. It just happens that paying the extra buck gives you a heck of mileage too.

But apparently not enough o’s.
