Turtle Improve Old Tuck mileage

Hello all,
Im new here and have a question. I have been looking to buy my first car (im 19). I am sort of obligated to get a truck because i work with a contractor and will constantly need my tool with me ( I have A LOT). So if i have to get a truck, i want one that i like.

Long story short, I want to get an old Chevy C-10 (Any year really), but to improve gas mileage so im not always broke, I want to know if its possible to somehow attach an electric motor to the driveshaft or rear axle.

My goal is to have a 350 V8 in front for fun, and the electric motor for the daily stop and go traffic (I live in the city and never have to drive far). I want to be able to turn on the v8 when I need to accelerate past something like 40, but really just rely on the electric motor.

Im also open to having both work in unison

What do you guys think?
