Below is a short paragraph from a article I stumbled on wondering if this pack could be used in the gym hybrids?



GM acknowledged plans for the second generation of the Two-Mode Hybrid system, complete with lithium-ion battery pack, in very broad terms at a technical event held last month at its Warren, Michigan,

GM is likely to fit the second generation of its Two-Mode systems with smaller, lighter, equally powerful lithium-ion battery packs. Those packs should benefit from every effort GM makes to cut the cost of Volt packs--which hold 10 times the energy of a Two-Mode pack--to make the hybrid option more affordable and give it a better payback period.

That's just one of several steps the company will have to take to continue selling half a million full-size pickup trucks in the face of rising fuel-economy standards between now and 2015.

where is the link? this might just show that there will be a GM truck/SUV hybrid II. can hillbilly confirm this?

 

Yes - it would be great to see if this is something new or something posted a year or two ago. A year or two ago, GM was talking about Li-Ion batteries in the two-mode hybrids (actually - they have developed a 4 mode hybrid which can run on battery at speeds greater then 30MPH). Since then, they've scrapped the entire large vehicle hybrid program - with statements that they have no plans to reinstitute.

It would be interesting to see if there has been a change of heart on the subject or if you just came across an older article.

 

Not sure now where I found it ...changed battery's in phone and lost all previous website info...

 

What's the consensus on future depreciation They're making me a counter offer on the 08 with 112000 and they tried to force some thing called wiNow etching $388 and some exterior sealant $800 told them no way! !! And left. They called back now I'm pondering ..

 

Snake Oil and they want to show you "etchings"? Back in my Mr. Goodwrench days we had dealership rust-proofing. It caused more problems than it cured. I don't go for fabric coatings, rust proofing, sealants, or any other $5 material that they mark up 1000%
