I wonder if Ralph Nader knows about the ev Corvair, while its still Unsafe at any speed, it is green...

I'm not normally one for Simpsons quotes, but by any chance is one of the exhibits an anthropomorphic car that says "Hi, I'm an electric car, I can't go very fast or very far, and if you tdrive me, people will think that you're gay"? I wouldn't be that surprised...

I don't know. A GM tribute to electric cars sounds a bit like a Nazi Museum of Tolerance.

Ooof. That's technically not a Godwin.

I've got a close relative who works at GM, and I'd just about kill to get in the heritage center.


Suffice to say, he's pretty high up, but it's nigh impossible, even for relatives, to get in the place-- unless you're personally invited by someone like Lutz.

So...much..automotive...history.
