It seems as though chevy can't come up with any ideas on there own so they just photoshop all the other brands to come up with new models. The only thing they got right lately is naming the avalance after a disaster. I suppose they just copied sony after they named there car audio line explode.

Hey, maybe you're onto something!

I can see it now - the new Chevy models:

The "Titanic"

The "Hindenburg"

The "Jimmy Carter"

We conclued on my Chevy board a couple weeks ago that the photos looked very 'shopped, so we're not really looking at production pics. Probably close, but not exactly.

There are going to be alot of chevy guys POed if this is the new production design. I have a couple friends that are Chevy salesman and they even think it is the ugliest truck they have seen. They told me that chevy is going to make the current model(classic) and this new model for awhile. Either way i wont be trading my truck in for one anytime soon.

I'm not feeling that new Chevy at all. However I like the concept of the stacked headlights, but that rear end is sportin the bus driver spread and I HATE squared off wheel wells. However, anything Chevy does with the interior will be worlds better than that 80's barf they have now, look at the new GMT900 interiors....waaaaay better. I look at that interior and then go look at my Excursion's interior and I feel like I'm truckin in the 70's. My neighbor just bought the new Escalade EXT, 22's and all. I must admit that thing is badass. As far as the current Silverado's and I've said this before, I'm VERY partial to the SS version especially in black. I just think it looks awesome. I just can't though, get past that interior, especially being spoiled with Ford's excellent interior design/quality. I think our current F150's will age very well and I think it still looks just as good as the first time I saw one. I really don't think any of the competition can touch the looks of our trucks, especially the dreaded looking Titan. I think Dodge would be next in line if I wasn't such a Ford *****.

Those 5.6's respond to mods much better than this 5.4 seems to. So while I agree with you there, they don't have many options other than exhaust, intake, possibly e-fans, etc. They do not have a tuner for obvious reasons, they do not have an underdrive pulley kit because they can't get their crank nuts off (haha), I can go on. I'm on 37's and I'd be willing to bet I'll take your Titan buddy with my mods, you just need to put a little more into your truck other than appearance mods. I'd be surprised if he could pull on me with intake, custom tuner, exhaust, removed cats, e-fans, etc. I was very interested in the Titan and test drove several loaded LE crewcab models before getting this. I cannot stand the interior, everything is cheap plastic, the Lariats black w/woodtrim had me hooked line and sinker. They are both great looking trucks, but the interior was nothing I was ready to give up. If I was in the market for another pickup I'd probably go to Titan this time around for something different, they look great lifted and I love the vertical sliding rear window. I also love how the chair reclined and moved back when I opened the door. Little things like that I remember. Other than that the truck is not bad, but I cannot say I like it better than my F-150.

I absolutely love the mean front end look of the new dodges, the very new dodge front ends. A little sleeker than the 05's and back. Why can't they just all work together and build one truck, I'd be buyin. Toyota can stay out of it, not a fan of anything of theirs unless it's QC.
