Apparently the Chevy Nova was a joke in Spanish speaking countries because it sounded similar to "don't go" or some such.

Then again, if Nissan gives us a huge discount, we might stay with them.

My wife bought a Chevy Trax around that time and the dealership didn’t have a Bolt in the showroom and didn’t know when that would change. It sounds like certain states are being prioritized. Definitely not us, perhaps not Utah either? But come to Chicago, the Auto Show is this week.

Like to take one for a test drive. Need a new car at the end of March. It will probably be a leased leaf but I am looking around. It will almost certainly be an EV.
