I saw that car a coupld months ago, I'd be interested in it but I'd prefer to wait until the next version comes out (not like you'd have much choices considering the waiting list) and hopefully improve upon the technology, especially when it comes to battery life and weight. I think first though I'd buy a hybrid that was assembled in the USA.

Dear Winner, PLEASE Stimulate the economy!!!! but please DON'T buy up all the gas and consider the Tesla electric sports car (only $100K) unless there's such thing as a Hybrid Hummer?? Cadillac makes a hybrid Escalade now. If I win the 1st thing I'd get is an electric or hybrid..and a home close to where everything is. Please save some gas so those of us who haven't won yet have a few dollars left after paying for gas to buy 1 or 2 Mega or PB tickets! I didn't even play the last drawing because... [ More ]

It'll be interesting if they'll come forward quickly or take a week or two to possibly get their things in order.

The apparent winner has up to one year to redeem the largest winning Powerball ticket ever sold in Minnesota and become the 20th Powerball jackpot winner in the state since the game began in 1992.

Depending on their health, he/she will have plenty of time to think about what to do before making a claim.

Officials at the Minnesota State Lottery headquarters said today they have heard from someone who claims to be holding the winning Powerball ticket from Saturday's drawing that's worth $180.1 million.

But nothing is official until that person comes forward and presents the ticket for certification at the lottery's Roseville office, a lottery spokeswoman said.

That's not likely to happen today, but it could happen this week. We are eager to find out, she said.
