WORST IDEA 10/12/10: Chevy Volt to cost $41,000

It's electric and requires no gas, but that won't matter because nobody could possibly afford the new Chevy Volt because it will cost $41,000. Okay, so Ed Begley Jr. and a handful of "green" celebrities will get it, but us regular folks will be stuck driving gas-powered vehicles because we can actually buy them. Only an American car company would create a practical sedan and then charge luxury car prices for it. Yes, I know there's a tax break, but that couple with gas savings still requires that you drive this carw for around 15 years to make it worth your while.
