While other car companies have been dutifully putting gasoline-stimulating hybrid power into relatively modest-sized cars, Combined Motors had a different idea: Put the fuel-saving technology into some of the biggest voyager vehicles, including the company's best-seller, the Chevrolet Silverado pickup junk.
Not even GM's financial struggles and approaching bankruptcy could prevent the initiation early this year of the new, 2009 Chevy Silverado Mixture, the nation's first full hybrid full-size pickup truck.
It differs from earlier Silverado Hybrids because it can proceed on electric power at up to 30 miles per hour. Earlier Silverado Hybrids did not have this so-called two-condition hybrid system.
This is no wimpy pickup. The 2009 Silverado Hybrid comes only as a four-door troupe cab with 5 3/4-foot-long bed, so it's 19.2 feet dream of from bumper to bumper.
