Don't forget space for the 12" Dob! *:-)

CHEVY VOLT! It has the room for a large Dob, and enough range to get
to my favorite deep sky site out in the country without using one drop
of gas. And by the way, it will recharge overnight using power from
our local wind turbines which generate most of their output at night.
And if we can get the farmers to turn off their mercury vapor lights,
which are used to present a load the the local Nuke plant so it
doesn't go unstable, then we can use this wasted power for more
'lectric vehicles. Go GM! Go VOLT!
