GM delivers first fuel cell truck to US Military
Old news, but just came across it via ExtremeTech.
Points to note in the above report are:
1. Two 94 kW fuel cell stacks.
2. Run on hydrogen and convert it to electricity and water.
3. NO other tailpipe emissions
4. 252 hp and 317 foot-pounds of torque
5. perf stats comparable to a 5.3L V8 gasoline engine - very impressive.
6. range of 125 miles - needs improvement :) - but good work considering that the design was not optimized for range
Fuel cells are a clean and quiet technology. Sure is a positive step.

Better check this out
Thanks for the link.
A most exhaustive article which not only discusses the future of GM in relation to fuel cells, but also gives a good primer of the logistics involved to get the technology rolling.
Very informative indeed.
