I just hope that the government will support this kind of things. And also, this should be implemented world wide. Indeed having a hybrid dump truck is a great idea.

But as the demand rises the prices will fall as in most economic systems. The reason why I feel the government should bare this burden is because they waited so long, maybe even too long to start worrying about this issue. Its really sad to see that the one thing we thrive on, the environment, is the one main thing we dedicated the least amount of attention to. But whats done is done and the attention now needs to be directed to both healthier production of products, as well as healthier and more environmentally friendly products as well.

Manufacturers have been making hybrid SUVs for a while so there is this is a logical evolution. Keith you note about a hybrid locomotive is equally encouraging. I would like to see the technology evolve to become the norm on highway tractors as well. However all this is meaningless if the vehicles are not put into widespread service.

After doing some research, I realized that there are much more dump trucks in the world then many people may think. Some sources were saying that 85 to 90 percent of the are completely fuel inefficient. To conclude, I think that the world could benefit in a great way form these new fuel efficient hybrid dump trucks. I think this is one of the best ideas that GE has come up with so far.
