More like "what I'd like to not have" ...

Yeah, if it could not vibrate, if the frame coating would not peel off after 2k miles, not have sloppy delayed shifting, and not have shit headlights (fixed 2016), that would be great..

If they are going to get rid of the 6.2, send it out with a bang, and make them available in the RCSB trucks, from W/T to LT…

Fearful it is endangered, I just want them to keep putting 6.2L's out.

The 6.2L is here to stay. It's just going to become more powerful and more fuel efficient over time. I hope we see a 6.2L mated with a 10speed on the next generation in 2017.

...goodluck lol

2018 so any major upgrade would most likely be 2019 at the earliest

I traded my 2008 5.3/4 spd in May for a 2015 LTZ 6.2L Crew. Main reason was better towing capability for my 25' travel trailer. Absolutely love the truck and the ease with which the 6.2 tows. The few things that I would like added to future Silverados are:

- add a Gear Display next to the V8/V4 Display. This would be very helpful when towing, being able to know what gear I'm in. With an 8 speed tranny I'm never quite sure of the gear, especially at highway speed. If I could know the gear then I could "manage" fuel economy better by being in the optimum gear. Wouldn't cost much.

- make towing mirrors available on 1500's below Highlander. Willing to pay.

- rear camera needs to be upgraded to sharper resolution. Still not the best for backing up to hook-up to a trailer.

 

That's about it. Other than these few items very happy camper. Btw, this truck gets better mileage than my 2008 5.3, especially when towing.

LOL sorry if I seemed to be whining. I would just rather them eliminate key issues than have any new enhancements in the next year.

Not much, really. A couple more LED's in the bed so they don't have to be added later. Front/Rear/Side facing HD cameras that record/save data for evidence in case of wrecks - built in, very small and not noticeable. A full sliding back glass like the Tundras have. Sunroof for doublecabs. And all of this stuff (plus the 6.2) available in every trim as option.

      Yes, you must have seen my thread on the Blazer. HOT GARBAGE, but I love them anyway. I'm convinced every car guy has a soft sport for an S/T series somewheres. Probably even a Panther too, if I'm being an honest car guy. That doesn't mean they aren't junk. And they definitely don't get better with age. I sometimes play with old cars, but that's by choice. I don't rely on them and they aren't my everyday fleet.   Derek plays the common man on Youtube and that's no doubt where he started. Now he has Youtube money (and Motortrend, etc). You think his crews and his wife ride around in old beaters when they're chasing him and his wrecks across the country? No he's got newer and nicer stuff for that, you'll see glimpses of it in the footage.

      You refuse to own anything made in this century yet you reportedly own... a 2007 Silverado, which is now almost 20 years old. The dissonance.... turn up your hearing aid?   You clearly don't understand the government contracting process, brother. We send people to die on front lines, keep the public safe, and make people's husbands, wives, children enter burning buildings with equipment from .....wait for it.....   ...the lowest bidder....   Just because something is used for a long time doesn't mean it's good. But it might be cheap and plentiful.   Please, continue to whine about new trucks in a thread dedicated to new trucks, which you've said you'll never own. We get it. Go tell everyone how you're stuck in time on a Panther forum. I mean, Jesus, an 86 isn't even one of the good Panthers.

      It really is comical when people don’t agree or see the reason some people prefer the older vehicles. They become condescending. All the while they may be busting their knuckles on old vehicles. I have found memories of swapping out engines in my old GM cars in a weekend without much hassle. Unlike today. One wrong move a computer will shut you down. Even on something as easy as a brake job. There’s a pretty comical YouTuber called the car wizard. A garage owner who puts it all in perspective. Another Vicegrip garage that’s shows just how tough the old stuff is.

      I was around and remember that era very well, so I'm calling b/s on that statement. If they were that bad no police department or taxi company would've bought a single one ... but they were used in both services (and fire) for DECADES. They were bulletproof and proven. Even the early 21st century ones weren't too bad! The early models were legendary.   Mine is proof, but people like atlas are blinded by agenda and refuse to believe facts right before their very eyes.   Even decades after they were built, a new generation started driving them, posting all their builds and shenanigans on Grandmarq.net and Crownvic.net. The failures would show up then, since they all were deep past 100k-150k miles by that point, and younger drivers tend to be a little aggressive, especially with vehicles than can lay a one-tire fire for as long as you hold your foot in it. They've more than proven themselves over the decades.   The only thing that'll really take them out is road salt. The bodies and sheet metal were garbage. A victim of the cheapout FoMoCo and GM have been partaking in before then, and since.   Today it's the stuff that counts - the undercarriage that rots away first!    GMs Caprice was no slouch either. Reliable as a stone ax - the opposite of what they build now.

      Let me know how your vehicles do in 10 years. You don't know ******, kid. 😂    There's a reason that Panther platform was used as police, fire, and taxi service for DECADES ... long before you were born, apparently.
