Might have something to do with the Obama Administration’s cap on salaries so GM can’t pay designers and engineers what the other manufacturers will. I’m not being a smartass either. I really think that has slowed them down since '09. ---

The Silverado & Sierra combined have been outselling the F-150 for a while now, so clearly their formula isn’t broken. ---

Interior blows my 08 out of the water but i like the look of mine better than this one. Bit too much for me. Might be a good time to get my hands on a 13 now and ditch my 08 hmmm. ---

I will take a larger displacement V-8 that has cylinder de-activation to get good economy, over a smaller engine that has a turbo or supercharger to get the same power. That’s just me though. ---------- Post added at 02:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:27 PM ---------- > [@mindless](#): > > Interior blows my 08 out of the water but i like the look of mine better than this one.

At first glance I like the look. I drive an 09 currently. The one thing that probably pissed me off more than anything is the antenna on the cab over the drive side. Why is it still there… ---

Side view and the Chevy cab looks like a Dodge. Front end looks like a bloated Colorado. GM and Chevy made a huge deal about the all new and it looks similiar to current gens. They made it sound like massive changes. Kind of disappointed honestly. The GMC does look better, but like Joelster says, looks like a Honda. Thumbs up to them using new powertrain from Tonawanda though! ---

I’m happy that they found a way to loose 500 more pounds, and curious to see what the DI adds to fuel economy. ---

Looks like the dash is giving birth to the console and it’s crowning. :tdown: And seriously? If you think it looks too much like a Ridgeline then you should probably shop for a donkey or something because they look nothing alike. ---

dodge has the cool air suspension and 8 speed autos ford has the ecoboost and awesome handling. this just looks comes off as behind the game, sticking an ipad to the dash is not enough. ---

The gmc looks like a slightly redesigned 2004 era f350 front end not a ridgeline to me. ---

I think it looks identical to a Ram from the side profile, but i do not see any resemblance to the Honda. I will take a Hemi, 5.0 or Eco boost over all 3 of those engines.
