2011 Chevrolet Volt Tries to Hip It Up at Bob’s Big Boy
So we were incredulous when we heard the 2011 Chevrolet Volt would be crashing the weekly classic car night at Bob's Big Boy, a old-timey hamburger joint in Burbank, California. Bob's isn't the friendliest place to roll up in modern machinery. Yet, we had to see the spectacle for ourselves (and have a burger and chocolate shake).
We arrived to the find the Volt nestled between a '69 Camaro and an Impala SS. We weren't surprised to find it in the care of its own social media crew, who were keen to throw around the term "electric car," which always bothers us a bit since the Volt isn't in fact an electric car, but a series hybrid with plug-in capability.
The Bob's diehards mostly took a live-and-let-live attitude toward the Volt, sticking close to their restored Chargers and rat rods. We expect they'll start taking the bus before they start driving hybrid cars.
