Obama Takes a Drive in GM's Chevrolet Volt Plug-In
By John O'Dell July 30, 2010
We try not to follow the pack too much, but just because everyone else is gonna post this picture doesn't mean we won't.
President Barak Obama got behind the wheel of a 2011 Chevy Volt today while visiting GM's Detroit-Hamtramck plant in Michigan.
Even though he's the President, GM apparently still wouldn't let him drive without a chaperon - that's plant manager Teri Quigley riding shotgun as Obama eases the car off the production line.
Hey, his administration loaned the automaker a few hundred billion bucks so it could keep going last year - a short drive in a Volt is they least they could do for him.
