Word just came in, from Bloomberg IIRC, that the EV and alternative energy credits have been spared. This will affect Bolt shoppers less than most prospective EV drivers, but it's still great news. It looks like I may be driving a 2018 Leaf after all, although the loaded Bolt Premiere I'm negotiating for is still a bit tempting...

Moving to "Other Electric Vehicles" from "Buying / Leasing / Dealerships" (since it isn't Bolt-specific).

It’s too bad these cars don’t run on coal, since that’s the only energy source that will be escaping the budget knife under the proposed legislation. Maybe VW can work on that, now that clean diesel is dead.

Clean diesel is NOT dead.
