I'm sure that it being a Government Motors car had nothing to do with the decision...:rolleyes:

In the 61-year history of the Car of the Year award, there have been few contenders as hyped -- or as controversial -- as the Chevrolet Volt. The Volt started life an Old GM project, then arrived fully formed as a symbol of New GM, carrying all the emotional and political baggage of that profound and painful transition. As a result, a lot of the sound and fury that has surrounded the Volt's launchhas tended to obscure a simple truth: This automobile is a game-changer.

It's supposed to be totally electric.

Haha yea it sure is Govt Motors. At least the govt is pushing a more enviorment friendly car. I'd rather that than them invade Iran.

I get that but if there's no functional reason for these cars to be about the same body style it just seems lazy.

      [The Athletic] Dane Brugler's 2025 7-round Mock Draft

      By CarolinaRideorDie · Posted

      Demetrius Knight is a steal at this point. He is flying under the radar but Luke Kuechly and Mike Rucker voluntarily brought him up in their interviews with the Panthers. He is smart, instinctive, and violent. There is a lot of chatter of Jalon Walker possibly being considered at 4 with Patriots and Jaguars at 5. If those teams are considering him at that high in the draft, we shouldn't complain picking him up at 8. Teams who interviewed Walker says his football IQ is equivalent to a defensive coordinator. I would be thrilled with Walker.

      General Draft Rumors/Speculation Thread

      By Bear Hands · Posted

      Getting a general one going in the main forum a week ahead of the draft. Take this all with a grain of salt.  This stuff usually ends up wildly different; but truths are peppered in.   Notes as of late: The common top-4, barring trades: 1-Ward, 2-Hunter, 3-Carter, 4-Campbell (I do wonder if NYG take calls) Giants are seeing Shedeur once more but still sounds like they're leaning Carter (Maybe trading up from 34?) Jeanty to the Jaguars is starting to pick up legitimate steam.  Vegas odds have dramatically increased, Brugler and a few others have switched him as their JAX choice at 5.   If that happens, the Raiders could very well be eyeing Jalon Walker Jets choice to come down to Graham vs. Warren vs. Membou (if all 3 end up available) Panthers have been linked to both UGA guys, mostly Jalon Walker.  Buuut do wonder what happens if Graham is there. Some links: Raiders Insider (Carpenter) reporting Walker buzz: https://www.raidersbeat.com/raiders-insider-team-believes-2025-draft-has-best-lb-prospect-since-micah-parsons/ Jets/Graham: https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/mason-graham-set-to-visit-jets-on-tuesday Brugler's Mock w/Jeanty @5: https://www.nytimes.com/athletic/6279834/2025/04/16/nfl-mock-draft-2025-full-seven-rounds-dane-brugler/ Jeanty-Jags: https://www.yardbarker.com/nfl/articles/amp/jaguars_rumors_insider_believes_jacksonville_could_take_ashton_jeanty_ahead_of_raiders/s1_17114_42056921   - Feel free to link, chatter, or paste in the poo from bluesky or x
