They are literally playing copy cat with Nissan Titan, Ram and F150.  Why can't they just make a good CHEVY and a good GMC?  What was wrong with years past designs?  I know fuel economy has a play into design now more than ever, but come on.  Be original. 

 

I am slightly concerned with what's going to be shown.

Great!  Hope it has blind spot warnings, adaptive cruise control, HUD, heated rear seats, rear hvac vents, rear USB ports, push button start, and 360 deg cameras for towing and parking to name a few.    Otherwise I'll keep my 2014 sierra Denali which is a stripped down version of a luxury truck.

If the truck is going to look anything like this at all,  I am SO happy I bought my 2017 Duramax DenaliHD. 

All it would take is for Ram to fix their ridiculous heater control and beef up the doors and they might have a more appealing truck.........sad days.

There was the same speculation and hatred and doubts on this site when the 2014 models were being tested and prior to coming out, and look how many of you bozos got one.  :P   You can't tell crap about the trucks with all that crap that is on them right now.  Patience, patience.

I absolutely hated the GMT900 when they were launched (photos etc). Obviously they grew on me since I bought a 2010.

It's going to look like the new Tahoe/Yukon/Escalade/Suburban/Yukon XL/Escalade XL.  Front doors might possibly be interchangeable as may the fenders, hood grill, etc. which would make the most sense from production and OEM aftermarket parts logistics standpoint. If you like the looks of the current SUV platform then you will like the next generation truck.  JMHO.  Front windshield appears to be laid back a little more also from current model.

Funny how people are commenting on it's looks.  Can't seriously see much at all other than wheel types, which mean nothing.  Only thing I see that I feel is negative is that odd window curl at the bottom of the back window.  Not a fan of that, but it's a signature GM thing so no way it'll go away soon.  And, it's not like any truck looks really THAT different these days.  The squarish thing is to make them look bigger and mean business.  Marketing... meh.

Still hard to tell since that camo is messing with my eyes so much. That said, the front end looks good but that bumper looks huge and really low. The beltline reminds me of the Chrysler 300, tall doors and short windows. I'm interested to see what they have done here.

 

I do like how they are differentiating the GMC vs the Chevy more now though.

I thought it looked more like a Tundra and a Ridgeline had some wild offspring.  I definitely have to keep my '96 Sierra going as nothing new is impressing me.

They are doing embossed / raised lettering in the tailgate. Similar to the old retro pickups.

“GMC” and “CHEVROLET”

Aluminum tailgates at least (probably more). Hopefully they leave the floor of the bed steel.

I think the headlight system will be a cross between the current 2017 sierrA Denali 1500 headlights and the headlights on the Yukon. (Sierra shape housing with Yukon style internals)

As long as they don’t start pushing turbo’d v6 in their trucks I think they will be nice.

Not impressed. Glad I bought the one I have.

My brother is probably thinking the same thing. He bought a '16 last year.

Bummer.  I never was a fan of those.  Makes deleting difficult.

      seat base height *lowering* (base 40/20/40 seat, 2026 1500 WT std cab)

      By bwiese · Posted

      Folks, Have a great new 2026 WT  (std cab, 2.7/4WD) w/base 40/20/40 mech adj bench "fake buckets"  (with lower and upper center console) heavy vinyl seats.  Overall the seats are very comfortable and the vinyl is heavy and appears less likely to 'split out'. Am very tall (6'5")  + a bad back/osteporosis/former hyperparathyroidism so ease/range of movement is a bit restricted.  The truck rides a bit high and I use a nerf step bar w/my left foot to step in, then I put right foot/leg in, drag my butt in  & get seated.  Worked fine in my 2018 RAM quadCab. But I end up dragging my butt over the left raised sidecushsion area of vinyl seat, and due to texture there's fair amount of traction on slide inward.  (ArmorAll didn't improve.) If the seat were even ~1/2" - 3/4" lower it'd be helpful, but base seats just have the forward/backward underseat bail and the side lever for tilt which really doesn't affect seat height.   I really don't want to 'de-puff' the left side sidecushion forming the  fake 'bucket'. I know one company sells 'seat elevator blocks':  but is there a simple way of lowering the height of the driver seat instead?   Thanks Bill W San Jose

      Travel Trailer 2024 2500 HD 6.6 Gas Engine ?

      By Tyler Gibbs · Posted

      The curb weight on a 1 ton crew cab long bed is around 7k lbs.  Now, I don't know where you went to school but 9k is not more than 2x 7k lbs. More than 2x 7k lbs would be 14k+.   With that said, obviously yes you're going to feel a 9k lb trailer when slowing down.  I already said, when accelerating.  When changing lanes?  No.  But if you look at the context of what was quoted, the original person said, "after a mile or two..." which means that would be after the accelerating portion and you're driving a generally steady pace.  Please do learn to read and comprehend.

      Dave's Auto (custom engine builder) tear down of L8T

      Like I've said before. Di and Carbon buildup is not that big of a concern. Engine had minimal buildup, and that engine was obviously not super well maintained. Do regular oil changes, and you're gtg as long as the rest of the truck lasts. Also, the High Pressure FP that people ****** about, but can't tell you why.  Now, I wish they'd trash the variable oil pump. No real world issues with them, but I'll gladly eat whatever miniscule MPG it's saving me in favor of more oil at all RPMs.    Curious to see his assessment of the 7.3 compared to the 6.6. I expect he'll praise the port inj, but from a structural standpoint, the 6.6 is as robust as any engine out there.    Not to take away from the 7.3. I feel it's equally as good as the 6.6.     As to heat on the rear cyls, I'd have to see numerous examples before I'd say it's an issue. Especially not knowing the history of that engine. For all is known, they could have blown a rad hose, and ran it hot, and the 2 rear cyls may be the first to get hot in a low coolant situation, but not be an issue aside from that.
