UNDISGUISED SILVERADO TEST MULE FEATURING ENORMOUS “JumboX” CARGO MANAGEMENT SYSTEM CAUGHT ON CAMERA  

Pickup buyers currently shopping for lockable, weather-proof side storage bins have just one option:  Ram.  But not for long.  General Motors is confirming the 2016 Chevrolet and GMC pickups will feature a similar option, except that GM claims its JumboX will be significantly larger than the Ram’s bins.  

“Sure, you can store a couple of shovels, fishing rods and maybe some knitting supplies in a RamBox, but you can camp overnight in a JumboX and still have room for a spare transmission and a canoe,” boasted GM spokesman Gallup Fong.    

At the same time, GM announced it is abandoning key-operated ignition switches, and the automaker is joining forces with small engine maker Briggs and Stratton to design a new lawnmower-type rope pull-start for vehicles.
