Our little CAB adventure is meant to be winding down this week. But a couple of us (names withheld to protect the guilty) are thinking that if GM can’t find our Volts, they can’t confiscate them.
This this’ll block the OnStar signal? ;o)

I am pretty sure that they have to return them to the Burbank facility. What if there were a picket line to keep cars from going INTO the Burbank lot? Doesn’t that mean we keep them instead?

Ooh, that’s a good idea…and I know people!

If you are truly serious, then I suggest you change the wheels also, it’s a dead giveaway
evchels said
yeah, cause the plug’s not?

I’ll donate the bail money (not to exceed $41,000) to free the “guilty” in exchange for any CAB member’s Volt Title and/or any claim to ownership.*
*The stubby antenna centered above the rear hatch window must be shielded to block the OnStar signal, preventing vehicle location. All other shielding can then be safely removed, which should reveal Waldo inside under the hatch.

What is going to happen to your Volt aka “Waldo” and other CAB cars when you turn it in?
evchels said
I don’t know exactly. They’re not saleable units, so I expect they’ll remain in some sort of controlled fleet use.

Perhaps your Volt could have a little ‘accident.’ You can’t return what was ‘accidently’ dropped into the East River. Hey! GM! Sorry, but the body, er, car body seems to have washed out to sea. Accidently. And you wouldn’t wanna have any more accidents, now, would ya GM?
(and I was only in New Jersey for 2 1/2 years!)

Me neither! But you know there’s a way to prevent that… ;o)

I have heard that if you cover your vehicle with slices of bologna, it is invisible to radar. However, the dogs will definitely find it.

My mom would say; Ok, funny, I hope your going to reuse all that foil.
Yes! To make UFO helmets!

Brilliant, 60 mins in the oven and it’ll be ready for Thanksgiving

maybe GM will just sell them?
If GM won’t sell them, it would be nice if they were donated to Auto Museums
or training centers. If High School Dropouts could be trained on how to
repair the volt using the CAB models, they would learn the basics,
and the systems would serve a purpose.

Don’t you wish you had been this creative when GM was coming for your EV1… GM will be crushing these like they did the EV1′s before them….
