This Month's Haul: October, 2015

Got rid of it.

I see a minivan and little diffs in the future.

Tough to have a minivan in the city...

I think it is around 30k or so? With subsidy, it might be under around 25k so depends on where you live.

I dunno, 40-50 just doesn't seem good enough. I got a 2014 Mazda 6 that gets almost 40mpg highway and it's not a hybrid.

I'm looking to get a new car around the first of the year, and I'm checking out Subaru right now.

I am talking pure electric range, not MPG. The 2016 Volt has a range of 53 miles (pure electric), and the gas motor can extend range to 400+ miles. It is not a hybrid since there is no ICE.

Start as low as 25k. http://www.chevrolet.com/volt-electric-car.html

If your commute is less than 25 miles per trip, you can just charge the car every night and don't have to pay any gas. I know a few people that does that and are quite happy with the car.

That is pretty awesome. I only know the first few Volts were shit.

The first of any GM car is shit guaranteed.

Not really an acquisition, but I'm glad I finally got my own internet connection.
