This could be enough range for you to avoid using the gasoline for several days at a time as long as you charge it nightly and only have a short commute each day. Not only do you receive this EV range, but once you start to use the gasoline you can drive a full 420 miles between fill-ups.

As GM quickly took over the market other brands began to take notice and begin updating their midsize trucks to continue the competitive spirit of what we want in our smaller trucks.
