Congrats, but Tissue's posting got me to thinking, apparently the Soul is high on the devils list of things to steal, but you maybe safe if you stay out of Georgia...heed Charlie Daniel's warning.

:) I am gonna put a tracking device on it so nobody can steal my Soul and so I can see if I am near Mike's car.
It does have electric steering :)

Yes and as it turns out Souls are pretty inexpensive. You would think that somebody selling their Soul would want more, but times are tough :)

Just waiting on the credit union and paperwork stuff. Looks like I won't get it until tomorrow :( Well unless the credit union has second thoughts :) I hate waiting and I am already browsing the web for accessories that I won't actually buy.

Watched Monday's "How I Met Your Mother" last night, and Lilly and Marshal had a Volt! I was pretty excited to see it in a show, but they didn't mention it at all. :(

So I've had the Volt for about a month now. My Kill-A-Watt meter shows I've used around $32 worth of electricity charging it this month. My odometer reads about 1100 miles, and I've only put gas in it once. I only had to put gas in it once due to a 163 mile drive that I was reimbursed for at $0.55/mile cause it was work related. So I figure that one trip paid for my electricity, all my gas, plus lunch a few times for the month. The Volt saved me money this month! :)

Old Prank Call:

Prankster: "Is your refrigerator running?"
Victim: "Yes, it is."
Prankster: "Well, you better go catch it!!!!"

New Prank Call:

Prankster: "Is your Chevy Volt running?"
Mike: "Why yes it is. I'm getting 234 kilowatt-joule-hours-per-meter-liter."
Prankster: "Uhhhhh... That is pretty good. CYA."
