Got to see a 2014 at IMS today

They had a 2014 at indianapolis motor speedway

 

Overall it is very nice.

 

The "fabric" in the wheel wells is really hard to explain. I dont think it will be a big deal to clean with some APC and a brush

 

Enjoy

My friend bought his wife a Dodge Dart and almost all of the car underneath has that felt material which is probably the same stuff GM is using now.

Am I the only one who doesn't like the side steps in the rear bumper. I just think they look bad. I mean, you already have the part of the rear bumper where the license plate is to step on, why the corners too? I guess if I was older or heavy, they'd be nice, but I just don't like they way the look.

I wish the bumpers were wider. My size 12 doesn't fit well

Nice pics Ryan. Thanks. Do those wheels look better in person, because all the pics have them looking really cheesy looking.

I am not a fan of the chrome clad rims but these were decent. I would prefer an aluminum but could live with these.

 

Also there seems to e more paint protection on the bottom rockers

You wish the corner bumper steps were wider? I step on the rear tires to reach anything on the side. I step on the center step by the rear license plate to reach anything in the rear and for all else I step over the gate and get in the bed... Again, if I was older or heavy I guess that would be harder but I don't see those corner steps being very useful. A chromed or painted bumper would look better without the step cutouts.

The step bumper idea was from the outgoing Avalanche I think...

 

& agree with Ryan about the wheels. I still want just plain old polished Aluminum, no cladding.

They are helpful for people with leg issues (knee here). I am young and can jump up but it makes it much easier on my knee that's for sure. Also not having a good grip with your foot (ice) is not fun that's why personally I would like a wider step (top)

I wasn't aware they were chrome clad. That is a definite no way for me. Why the high dollar hub caps? GMC 20's on the All Terrain are all aluminum and look really nice. If I go Chevy, probably go for the 18's.

We will see. This info came straight from a gm guy running the event and he didnt seem misinformed at all.
