These things look amazing and I want one.
Back to 4 wheel disc brakes. I don't really care, there's no need for them on a half ton. Drums work fine. Disc brakes look cool and that's what people care about. There are no towing or payload specs so maybe it's high enough where disc brakes come in handy.
Front parking assist - which allows an auto-adjusting cruise control. I like that part, when you can't just change lanes to pass someone, the cruise control will slow you down until you can pull out, then speeds you up again.
Some sort of vibrating seat, alerts you when you get too close or swerve or something like that. I dunno, I don't think it's necessary but hey it's all in the name of safety.
I love the new gauges and dash layout. I liked the gauges in my current truck, they are easy to read and the information panel is nice, but the new edition is even better. The controls for it are on the steering wheel and not over on the dash. Easier to cycle through info, I like to pay attention to fuel economy, transmission temp, tire pressure, etc. If there's information, I love to keep on it. No sense having a gauge if you don't look at it.
I like the looks of the truck, it's a good improvement. I don't care about projector headlamps. I think 99% of all other vehicles that have them are completely annoying. We'll see.
Engines are supposed to be all new. Same displacements, different tech. Direct injection, awesome. Variable valve timing, already have it. Displacement tech, already have it. There are no power ratings yet, I would imagine they'd be on par with competitors. Looking 400ish HP with the 5.3L. They bring up the 4.3L like it's going to actually be good this time around. It's dead on reliable, but useless in a fullsize currently.
Crew cab half ton will get the option of a standard bed of past, 5'3" or a full 6'6" like the 2500HD's currently get. There's no 8' crew option that I know of.
OK here are the pics, I love pics LOL
