Chevy Silverado Hybrid

Anyone around have one?The good?The bad?

 

the bad...you pay all that extra chedda and really dont get a noticeably better fuel economy.

the good...you can sniff your own farts from a wine glass if you own one

 

The good, you get back $2200 from the federal government in the form of a tax credit.

 

Wouldn't you be able to run your tire warmers from one?

No need for a gennie.

That's a plus but a kinda expensive one.

 

Keep em coming,I've seen a few new ones around for the about the same price if not cheaper then a standard Silverado in the same trim.

 

My wife has an escalade hybrid. She gets about 17.5 to 18 miles per gallon. I would bet that a typical non-hybrid gets no better than 14 mpg. 3.5 mpg doesn't sound like much, however, do the math and you will see it is a pretty big difference. Plus, with getting back the $2200 (if new purchase) you will make up the money pretty quickly.

 

Would rather buy the ford f150 with the eco boost. Similar mileage but a better overall truck.

 

:down:

 

My choice as well.

 

I would rather walk than own anything from Government Motors.

 

Buy a Ford and you can have that walk with a busted transmission to keep you company!

 

Guess if I was intrested in a Ford it would have said it in the thread title....carry on the Chevy stuff(or GMC):up:

 

My none hybrid Tahoe get 17mpg and so did my Avalanche.
