    And how the Panthers platform is holding up on used cars, long after we die potentially

    Bro, you still got that truck? I'm not seeing any m rust or flaking, which rusted metal flakes. Everyone thinks the wax "is rusty" but it absorbs its surrounding environment, creating a hard, natural shell that you can literally shoot with a bullet and won't flake off. It'll last 50 years like that as long as the barrier isn't compromised by getting in a wreck or meets a chemical that disolves wax. My 09's frame is even duller looking than that, and is holding up better than my rockers or 3rd set of painted shocks.

    My main questions are storage related. I'm a huge fan of the 40-20-40 seats, but they made the under center seat storage not standard on the custom or WT trims. I was also a fan of the behind rear seat storage, which also was limited. Will we get better storage across the line? And not with having to buy expensive trims? On a positive, the upper door storage shelf is back!

    For the long cranking, I do know this engine is very susceptible to fuel quality. Watch your centene values and bio content. This isn't a Jimmy that will run off of crude.

    I hope to high heaven this is wrong. My Chevy farm trucks frame is lasting way longer than a newer Nissan Titan XD I got for a steal, and it only pulls trailers. A decade younger and it's frame is already way rustier than the waxed Chevy I drive across longs and ditches. Also, hasn't Ford been having tones of troubles with rusted frames?

    AFM is confirmed in the Corvette engine, so I'm assuming the higher volume trucks will get it as well

    We still haven't seen the GMC's. I expect the Chevys to more orr less match the Fords, but with no all aluminum body and simple SBC, be significantly more affordable. I'm hoping GMC offers the 6.7 engine and lays it all out on the line. My main question? More premium GMC's already use composite leads out back. Does Chevy get any? What other frame/suspension changes?

    Not to mention when you want to automatically turn off the lights now you got a blaring screen blinding you.

    Why soooooo many screens? Shall we just replace the windshield with a large plasma?!?!? Besides that I like the looks. And they added back the additional door cubbies, No SS???

    If they were to make more crew cab 6' beds I'd be willing to talk about dropping the extended cab, but right now extended cabs are the best way to get a 6' bed with incentives. I doubt it'll be dropped. I can't do a 5' bed. I'd really like an extended cab 8' bed personally. Biggest news on the configuration front is GM's Corebuild software their rolling out on the cars. Its supposed to use data mining to help with dealership configuration. I see too many white crew cabs sitting on a lot waiting for incentives, then they move with incentives and are immediately replaced with new white crew cabs.
