My boss at the car lot accidentally bought one of those hybrid silverados. JUNK!!! The best i could get in it was about 27mpg. This was a reg cab, 2wd, longbed. I used it for about a month as my daily driver becuase I was remodeling. Put a load of sheet rock in teh bed.... 19mpg. That is pitiful IMO because you pay extra for the hybrid and it doesn't get much better mpg than a new gas f150. I was getting 21 loaded or unloaded in my lifted F250 crew 4x4 diesel. Diesel engines run a premium but if they are taken car of, they'll last!

A diesel hybrid..... that could be interesting!!! Gov't will never allow it to happen though. They would lose so much money in tax!
