gunslinger2803 Posted August 18, 2006 Report Share Posted August 18, 2006 not digging the chrome in the front, but i just looked on chevy.com and it has new pics of the 08 silverado with out the chrome in the front, looks much better. they offer a new 6L like 367 horse motor, or something random like that. they have some really cool new ideas... like the rear windows on the ext cabs complelty roll down, an assisted tailgate, factory toolbox options... stuff like that Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chvygrl SS Posted August 23, 2006 Report Share Posted August 23, 2006 i don't know about that front end......chevy could've done a lil better.....and i agree it looks like a mix of the tundra, f-150, and the titan. hopefully it grows on me....but right now i'm not feeling it.

Jond983 Posted August 25, 2006 Report Share Posted August 25, 2006 dude has anyone seen the new 08 gmc sierra, it rocks! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CWGrizzwold Posted September 18, 2006 Report Share Posted September 18, 2006 (edited) Sorry for the late response on this, but below is a link to the actual Powerpoint presentation that GM used during the unveiling of the new Silverado and Sierra. It is packed full of where GM stands and why they are making the changes that you have seen bits and pieces of. It also has a ton of good marketing pictures of the interior and exterior. Warning! This is an 18 Meg file so proceed only with a high speed connection. It's worth the wait though. GMT900 Unveiling Presentation Below is a link to the GM Media site article on the Silverado. GM Media Silverado Page The new Sierra Denali is extremely sharp! Edited September 18, 2006 by CWGrizzwold (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aspentaylor Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 Ok.. someone put that Colorado on a diet! Man I really reaaaaaaaally am not liking what I am seeing here. I hope GM figures this out right away. Our bodystle IMO is one of the sharpest ones to date.. I really really hope this is a bad dream <{POST_SNAPBACK}> LMAO!!!! One fugly truck!

faceliftedss Posted September 20, 2006 Report Share Posted September 20, 2006 i saw these exact pictures in sport truck magazine and they liked it. i agree with a few other people that they should of made it look more like the new yukons i hate it. not looking much like a street truck at all. that picture ruined my morning wood.

StealthSS Posted September 21, 2006 Report Share Posted September 21, 2006 Ive warmed up to it a little. I think the Chevy looks best as an extended cab with 20 inch wheels. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bhoopty Posted October 6, 2006 Report Share Posted October 6, 2006 holy crap that new silverado is dirty dirty...i am sure it will grow on me...i didn't like the new front ends on the 03s-current... But i love them now...espically the SS...The Sierra looks like a new ford pickup... I guess everyone has run out of ideas.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Badkarma Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 We have the OC autoshow at my work and I have been checking out the new gen Silverados. I'm not impressed. Use of plastic is way up. Hell the friggin put a 395HP LS 2 in the dang Trailblaser SS. Yeah I'm miffed Damn soccer moms are gonna have more poneys than me dammit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fuganator Posted October 9, 2006 Report Share Posted October 9, 2006 I think the interior looks pretty good, a little step up from our trucks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11H Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 I like how Chevy has kept the "traditional" look through the years and I think most of us on here remember the years when they went to IFS in the late 80's ... They kept that look for some time ... Maybe not in the squareish hood lines but it's easy enough to tell similarities to the trucks in 1988 ... At least in the overall body lines ... NOW, this truck to me, the ONLY way I would embrace it is because I embrace the superior powertrain/s ... If it had been for looks and stance, GM would have lost my money a few years ago ... To me "beauty lies in the function and build quality more than the looks" ... I saw a 2007 Chevy 4x4 this week with a 4" Lift on it, in White, and it was "cleaned" of all nameplates, etc ... It honestly, with dark windows was one of the burliest trucks I have seen and that is going to be the TICKET ... As it looks stock it looks like an over-done/busy "I hope this brings home the bacon for us at GM and pulls us out of debt truck" ... One bad=azz thing added to the Vortecs now is VVT which IMO is a huge advantage for us, however it will send the tuning aftermarket to some serious homework ... It will be interesting to see where this VVT puts the margins for gain at ... 11H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
11H Posted October 22, 2006 Report Share Posted October 22, 2006 Also, nice to see that the local Proving Ground rumor was just that a RUMOR about the new Diesels being de-tuned ... The LMM 2007.5 Duramax is actually more powerful than the LBZ ... So the scare about ULSD (Ultra low sulfur diesel) is in the past ... 11H Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
