I like the Chevy better this time. Although the GMC is starting to grow on me.

I listed to the webcast of the official GM launch yesterday, and supposedly the EC's are launching in October, the RC's in November, and the 3/4 ton's in February. I'm guessing the CC's are supposed to launch w/ the EC's, but I'm not sure on that.

One thing I haven't seen yet is a RCSB. I really hope they didn't do away with it.

Yeah, I like the power rear EC windows to. Too bad they didn't make a power rear window that slides down. You can tell from the pics that the rear window design looks the same as the current GM trucks rear glass.

I'm very surprised to see they took out the front seat belts from the seats.
I thought that was one of the easiest places to grab for your seat belt in any truck I been in. It also cleaned up the interior cabin as well.
Another reason could be from previous serious frontal collision records. The seat may have not been a very strong place to put them. Just a thought.

Don't think its going to grow on me....this is the third or fourth post of the new truck and it just gets worse every time I see it.
Looks like Ridgeline and a Dodge Ram got it on and out popped this evil spawn!!
The fenders just don't look Chevy to me, we always had the smoothest/cleanest body lines, that's all over now...
The door handles look stolen from Chrysler too

I agree, cool feature.

Anyone know if the new trucks are the same weight? heavier?
