You'll get the ten speed for sure.

Nine speed is for passenger cars and CUVs.

Or to put it another way, the 9 speed is for FWD based vehicles while the 10 is for RWD

I hate the tailgate with the recessed names. same with Toyota models. Think they look super cheap. Plain tailgates with simple lettering of emblem look better.

Looks great - watch Chevy's video to get a good look at the vents they've designed into the grille/fender overlap.

Any word on new features? Interior?

What are the vents for?

Might be for an 'air curtain' to reduce drag at the front wheels.

That's interesting. I just read that the new Wranglers are usings vents in the fender behind the wheel opening for a similar reason. I cant wait to see one of these trucks in person.

Bingo!

It's very....sports-car-ish. I really like this redesign. Much more aggressive in a reserved sort of way...the last trucks looked good - but it seemed like they tried to hard to be "manly". This one doesn't feel as forced.

I think it looks absolutely awful. I will have to reserve judgment till seeing it in person but it looks like the bastard love child of a Silverado and F-150. The front end looks like a total mess to me and the side profile is eh.

That is one of the things I do think they did right, looks better.

Really curious to see what their new offering will be.

I think the current chevy is good looking. This refresh puts it right there with the Nissan as being one of the ugliest trucks being built right now.

If I had to put a ranking on Full Size trucks by appearance.

1. Sierra
2. F-150
3. ram
4 Silverado
5 Tundra
6 Titan

But the 19 Silverado might be uglier than the Titan, to me just looks like a total mess. But again, need to see it in person.

I suppose that I will get used to it. I am not a fan of this new design, especially the front fender contour and grille. I hope it will be successful for Chevy.

SSEssence · 12-18-2017, 09:08 AM

That thing looks mean as hell, cant wait to start seeing them modded!!

Hmmm now you have me thinking on that one. Extra set of lights in there might have been good.

DRKS1D3 · 12-18-2017, 09:46 AM

I personally think it looks great!

With that being said, appearance is purely subjective.
