Realistically I could see the following:

6.2L w/6L80E
AWD
14 bolt
3.73s
ECSB
22" Wheels
Specific SS Front/Rear Bumper
Specific SS Front Grille
Specific SS Exhaust

After thinkin bout it alot, i think id rather stick to the older trucks. 70s or 80s chevy with new 6.0, turbo, 80e, 12 bolt. Insurance would be cheaper
Simplicity rules!

Screw all this new stuff $40k+ and insurance at almost $2k a year.

Ok im done, no mew stuff for me.

Your falling for my exact line of thinking. Build what I want, how I want. Keep it for a long time, make fun of people paying $400-1000 a month in car payments.

Basically just like the '03-'06

The SS was the ext cab short bed, the Denali was the crew cab short bed.

Denali got more interior upgrades, SS got more exterior upgrades.

Anyone who thinks GM will put a LSA, 6 speed manual or anything else in a sport truck is dreaming.
