It's the lawyers, if those labels were not there and someone did get injured by the air bag deploying then there would be lawyers chomping at the bit hollering SUE!!!! But with the stickers at least they say hey you were warned, didn't you read the stickers that were in plain sight?

The real warning should be for passengers(usually teen females) to keep their feet off the dash, unless pretzel is a look they are shooting for.

It's actually the lack of common sense people have today that manufacturers are being required to put warning labels on everything,
Just read the warnings on many products. You will see what I mean, what should be common sense to people they still have to warn us about.
Just like the warnings on Cigarettes, everyone knows they will kill you, they have been called "Coffin Nails" for centuries....

Yeah...I hope we get a better interior than that as well, and I hope to see some color variation at least in the higher trim packages. But that said, if the rest of the truck looks good, performs well, and has decent mpgs no way I'd not buy the truck just b/c of that interior.

Anyone hear when the Frontier or Tacoma are going to be refreshed or a new gen coming? They are both long in the tooth as well.

Well that's interesting.

Hmmm much better than Colorado in my opinion. My 89 full sized truck was a Cheyenne.

Possible performance truck?

Looks like it might be, rolling on Z/28 wheels and low profile tires.

And now that I've seen it on my laptop Z/28 brakes!

Whatever it is if it makes production it won't be cheap.

Would a rendering from GM be considered real, or a photoshop? Because thats what I believe this to be.

Happy Birthday to them. I enjoyed watching the Chevy 100 program last year. Lots of great history.
