Kind of surprised that motor lags the 2.7 EcoBoost in both HP and torque...of course, it is a base engine and not an option, but still.

Also, I hope that motor finds its way into the Colorado ASAP...

Bahahaha.  Now wait for all the EcoBoost haters to waltz in and praise this just because GM built it lol.

Now they need to announce the 6.2 power #s.  I would like to see 450hp and 475+ft tq

Dam just watched the video and the GM screen in background confirms the same power #s and 2018 on the V8s that is disappointing but if the 10 speed trans programming is better than the current truck I would be happy.  I have always hated how GM has their trans' programmed for the last 20 years.  I hope the 10 speed shifts and functions similar to how well it does in the camaro.

Go drive the new Tahoe/Suburban. It has that drivetrain.

GM retracted the power#s on the V8s so we still don't have official #s.

When were they retracted?  A couple of weeks ago when the order guide was leaked, this video is brand new and was filmed by GM themselves.  I'd bet these are the numbers for the V8s.

No diesel in the LT Trailboss.  No new Silverado for me.

Its odd that GMC is offering the 6.2 and Diesel in the AT4 which is their version of the Chevy Trailboss.  I bet Chevy will eventually offer the same trim engine configurations as GMC by 2020 model year along with the multipro tailgate.  When the 2014s were announced GM said they were differentiating the 2 brands more with different trims etc but then Chevy got the High Country trim because they needed a trim like Denali.  Then by the 2016 refresh you could get all the same features trim packages and engine options in either brand.

Actully the TFL Truck group gave a "wink, wink, nod, nod" that someone from GM said that there would be more choices in the Trailboss at a later date.
