    So you choose to inconvenience yourself 2-3 times a month because of something you only do 2-3 times a year? I get people who complain about range when they take road trips every month or live in very cold climates or have long commutes, but 2-3 times a year you can rent a car for the money you would save on gas and maintenance.

      No idea what you’re talking about, but it’s our second vehicle. Primary is a Volt, so PHEV with the longest range. Most days we use no gas because I work from home and we only use the van a couple times a week when the kids need to be in different places at the same time.

        Why not use the Volt for the long trips? It uses gas.

          Too small. I mean it holds an impressive amount, but I can’t take my wife, a 13 year old, and an 11 year old on a week vacation in it.
