I'm pretty much average sized by current US standards, and I can't think of
a vehicle I have serious trouble getting into or out of. So I don't worry

Good to hear.
It’s possible you will get a premium for your used Volt, as they are
discontinuing it and has a large following.
Everyone I’ve heard from with a Bolt loves it, and there will be many more
options out there when you are ready to part with your Bolt. The Tesla is

No, I’m not Tesla unaware, though not familiar with all the details that you
mention. And I know several very happy owners. I also have a nearby Tesla
“store” at a local mall that I like to visit.
Your own experience would work fine for ME, though my wife may not go for it.

As I understand it, Tesla will drop off the car of your build at your
address to let you test drive it for a week. If you don’t like it, they’ll
come on by and pick it up. Otherwise, it’s yours.
