A OHV engine is also alot more simple than a DOHC engine, doesn't mean the more complicated one is better .

The Silverado and Saturn hybrids are much less sophisticated than Toyota's,
And also far less expensive.

One of GM's core competencies is hyping technology well before it's available.

It's a cool billboard, though. GM also has some other great ads up and down Woodward, most of which are centered around the 50th anniversary of the '57 Chevy.

Like the front of the '57 Chevy that says "Even though it ran on gasoline, it was still electrifying."

The '57 Chevy was the official car of the 2007 Woodward Dream Cruise.

Yep - that one was great. I also loved the shot of the Bel Air tailfin, with the simple text "Other cities have art shows".
