Great Podcast guys! I laughed my *** off at my "ramblings". Could you tell I was in moving traffic... "uhh, stumble, stumble"? I'll try to be more brief in the future

I did realize there was 30 secs of "dead air" after the fact. I *was* a little distracted. Thanks for covering for me!

Here's a link to the Camaro being auctioned.
Can we get a better time, there are 2 shows back to back that are 8 hours long each? That is a little much to Tivo, as I am sure a lot of people will be at the car show, or Las Vegas in my case

?Wayne Newton?

Almost as likely as Elvis Presley.

However,
...How about Reggie Jackson!?

Oh, and BayerZ28: *regenerative Braking*. Great idea. It works well! Regenerative braking has been utilized since GM's second electric car, the GM Impact. The Impact, designed in 1991, gave way to the GM Saturn EV1 project in 1996. Those all-electric cars employed regernative braking and I experienced it first-hand around Milford, MI when I was doing instrumentation work on Serial number #0001 in the spring of 1996. All hybrid electric vehicles use it, as a significant amount of power is recoverable during braking, so long as you dont haul the mail down too fast.

Kind of funny about getting some extra miles in the Volt, we were looking into it(before the body change) but my wife's commute is 44 miles. I wondered if she took a UPS/battery backup(charged at home), and plugged it into that at work would it have enough juice to get those extra miles. Now with the gas engine it isn't a problem.
