Spotted this picture in an article about GM's Hydrotec fuel fuel call technology.

I guess it's showing a GM EV being charged using the mobile power plant.

A giant brick on 4 wheels as far as I am concerned. The worst part is one will need to call the local power utility and give them time to put another generator on line so it can be charged. :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

Sorry for being so brutally honest but anybody who plunks down $112,500 for that has got to have their smarts examined.

No surprises here, hummer after the H1 has just been a novelty for those who want to throw $$$ at something widely unpractical. Which for some is a hobby that makes them feel better about themselves.

Glass half full, less people in the maverick queues!

shouldn't that trailer be hitched to the hummer, so they can go at least 100 miles?

Thanks,
That's the Hummer EV
https://www.gmc.com/electric/hummer-ev/pickup-trucks-suvs

Been out about as long as the Maverick but GM has only sold about 900 of them total, so I don't blame you if you haven't seen one before.
Thanks, I was thinking a Maverick sized vehicle but it's more of a Chevy Avalanche thing.
Interesting article about GM's Hydrotec fuel cells for trucks, trains and airplanes (to replace the APUs) and mobile power generators. also development of electrolyzers to generate hydrogen.

Subject for anther forum though - delete thread as not relevant to Mavericks.
