Well as a truck nut myself it has a lot of take it or leave it things in my opinion and while it is in the R&D stages one thing I really like is the fact that it has a diesel.

I really wish GM would bring the diesel motor to the smaller trucks. I have the Duramax in my 2500 and love it, the only thing that keeps me from buying a 1500 is the power aspect for pulling, sure the 5.7 liter will pull but at 8 mpg and the strain on the truck is not good.

I am sure the design will get tweaked a little. One thing I would definitely like to see in ALL GM Vehicles that claim any type of towing is intergrated brake controller, well worth the money as an option or standard equipment.
