I'm starting to build a spreadsheet to compare the Volt to the Cruze. (Both cars I have driven and like a lot)

Given the tax credits and lower to no gas costs for the Volt, I'm getting close to making a case that the there is very little premium that one pays to get the Volt over the Cruze. The upfront cost for the Volt is mostly recouped over time thanks to the lack of gas. The only remaining question is what a replacement battery costs. Unless prices come down, that kills the bennies of the Volt.

As a Desert Storm Vet, I look forward to driving one of these someday to my annual Squadron reunion on the Marine Corps Birthday. As far as I'm concerned, any Veteran should get one of these cars paid in full courtesy of the Saudis instead of those crappy little medals they gave us to wear on our uniforms.
