Well everyone here seems to love it so far. I'm not as convinced yet. Need to see other trims before I can pass judgement. Don't hate it by any means. Side profile has good lines.

This live shot looks better than the press release ones to me. This is good.

I've already seen people lamenting the loss of the squared-off wheel wells. Which a ton of people complained about when the K2XX truck had them.

Unfortunately for me I may have spoke too soon. Im not liking it as much seeing the actual pictures. Not crazy about the fender protrusion wraparound thing. Not as nice looking as the 18 f150 to me. Still much better looking than the previous or existing models by far.

I think the current Chevy is the worst looking of the major players, with the GMC being possibly my favorite.

Really curious to see what their new offering will be.

Overall, I like it. Seems a lot less slab sided than the last couple generations of truck.

Kinda has squinty eyes though.

I think the current Chevy looks the best of all 4, with the GMC in 3rd (F150 looks the worst, IMO). But I know I'm in the minority with that order.

This generation may represent the greatest differentiation between Sierra and Silverado...from what I can see maybe the rear doors and roof are shared.

Finally figured out why the side views looked so odd to me...

No Silverado badging on the door? Granted some people like the clean look, but the badge kinda helps to visually break up the door panel.

This has been the case on the Midnight Colorado for example. One Z71 badge on each side I believe. Minimal. Clean. I bet it's just this trim. You'll get all the chrome and badging you want on other models I bet.

This close up of that finger wrapping around the front isnt flattering ,and the bottom of that same piece looks like its just hanging their like a picture on a wall. The rest of the truck looks good.

I would like to see reliability. GM's reliability overall is in the tank. No one ever talks about that until they end up with a turd.

They fixed those ugly Square bloated wheel wells/quarter panels. I hated that look, made it look like a Lego truck. I'm glad it is gone.
