Does the cost of replacement batteries need to go into the Volt equation? How long will they last?

Chevrolet says the batteries will go 100,000 miles at least, replacement cost will probably be inline with other hybrids at around $8-10,000.

I actually passed a Volt on Dort Hwy on my way to school today. Still cool to see them!

Angry Gas prices
Paid $3.83 a gal. for 93 octane at the local shell tonite.
I'm sure glad we only get 1% of our oil from libya

Wow - I'm glad that I do not have to run high octane fuel. I only run 87 octane in my HHR and right now it is running $3.26. If you want 93 octane you ate looking at $3.66 at times.
