Houston Cars

However, if John McCain becomes the next president ( unlikely at this point ), he’ll push for a $5k credit.  I’d love to see a big, fat tax credit on the Volt, since the MSRP keeps spiraling upward as the deadline approaches.  If GM wants to actually sell any of these cars, a big tax credit will be crucial.  $5k wouldn’t hurt by any means, but $7k would be fantastic.  $40k - $7k tax credit = $33k.  Still a ton of cash for the Volt, but more realistic to the average Joe.
