Here at the Mid-Missouri Powerhouse, we have a pretty large portion of our favorite customers that simply love trucks. Off-Road contenders such as the ZR2 Bison and our prized Silverado have long been ruling the wooded hills, dirt trails, and job sites of this area, and they are as loyal, reliable, and rugged as one can imagine. Having the freedom to quickly haul a load, know you're equipped for a fishing run, and doing it all while sitting in a cabin that has become much more luxurious the last few years are all front-running benefits of Chevy truck ownership.

Before you balk right away and doubt the importance of this announcement, consider that the new truck is stated to be able to run over 400 miles on a single charge! Not much else has been revealed at this point, and as the Autoblog staff noted, it is not yet known whether the truck will function as an electrified version of the beloved Silverado, or as an entirely new model altogether. The announcement was also made earlier this year that Chevy is now investing $2.2 billion into the conversion of the Detroit-Hamtramck facility into the first assembly plant that will be entirely committed to the development of EVs.
