Yeah, I forgot all about the hydraulic hybrid system that Eaton is working on. Perfect for trash trucks that have short duration high start up loads with the added benefit of regentive braking to recharge the system with all those stops.

Definitly a win-win.

So why don't we see them everywhere...???
