Chicago: 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche
Mention Chevrolet trucks and most of us think of pickup beds, trips to the home and garden center, maybe towing a boat or trailer, and some probably envision their daily ride to the work site. However, it's fair to say few of us picture corn, though Chevrolet executives are intent on changing that.
Making its official debut at the 2006 Chicago Auto Show, the 2007 Chevrolet Avalanche is the newest addition to Chevy's lineup of vehicles capable of running on E85, a fuel blend of 85 percent ethanol and 15 percent gasoline, providing a viable alternative to our dependence on fossil fuels via home-grown corn. As part of its push, Chevy is plastering its new Live Green Go Yellow campaign on a NASCAR race truck and pace truck for an upcoming race at Daytona Speedway.
