It's official. I now haz a Volt. I just couldn't pass it up any longer. I've been wanting to get something new, and since the 335i became Sonya's car, it was my time! I picked up a 2013 Volt Premium. It's setting me back about $30 more a month than the 335i was, and I'm honestly getting 186 MPG (I will have had it a week tomorrow). Of course, that number will go down if it's taken on a road trip, but for commuting I'm using right about .4 of a gallon a day. Comparing that to my VR-4, which was gulping down 2.5 gallons per round trip to work and back and this decision has win written all over it (yes, I was using my VR-4 as a DD for almost a year and it NEVER had any issues). I think it's sad the 3/S platform gets such a bad rap on reliability. I've never really had any issues that weren't caused by my own stupidity.

We'll have to set it up, then. Seriously.
