chevy has a vehicle coming out that looks a lot like the pt cruiser. i wish they would do something major with the trucks instead of feeding us little morsels. ricer nation is taking over. i am afraid we are losing that battle.

ya you can't post ***** in here.

The LS7 fiasco of 6.4L or 7.0L; 3 valves or two; etc. I'm not saying the new trucks will have LS7 engines in them. I just reread what I wrote and it was poorly worded, oops.

hmmm, this sounds promising. but i doubt it will appear. from GMINSIDER website Silverado Line- 2005 is a carryover year for the Silverado. In 2006, there is a good chance that GM will offer a nearly 400HP version of the 6.0L LS2 in a standard cab, shortbed Silverado SS. After that, the aging Silverado line will get a redesign in 2007 (GMT-900). Expect the usual increases in chassis strength, towing ability, and interior quality. Expect Chevy's current scowling look to look more "big rig" a.k.a Dodge Ram An optional 7.5L V10 powertrain will be added.

GM did some research on a LSX based V10 back in the mid 90's. GMTHP did a big write up about it in Sep 2002 (Vol 8 Is 5)
