I can't believe some people actually pay money for one of those things.

I kinda doubt the interior will be that nice.............

I looked at an Avalanche before buying my XLT and the interior didn't match up to it's 55,000$ price. It appeared to have lots and lots of plastic, more than a 150.

I'll bet the projector lights are optional, too.

Dodge has already came out with there half to that is very competitive with the F-150. Competition is good for everyone.

I rode in an 08 or 09 Z71 Suburban for 6 hours not too long ago. I couldn't get over how cheap the interior was, everything looked and felt fragile. I rolled the window down half way and at speeds above 65 mph it would start shaking side to side.

It didn't ride half bad though.

I'd buy a Toyota before a GM or a Dodge.

That would be my second choice, a DODGE lol. - If I needed another dually diesel. Used one out in the field for a couple years. It didn't do to bad.

I think the interior will be much improved. They have come a long way in the last couple of years with fit and finish. They had better at least. The current model has been out since 2008 I think. 5 year run is pretty typical.

I'd order one with a manual. Oh wait, the world went P****, and I think I'll be safe from buying a new truck.

So I guess Ford fixed the intercooler condensation problem, or the shudder problem and the arcing/sparking rear window that explodes, or the hood that cracks when you close it after leaving the dealer. Work hard and be nice.

HHHHHhmmmmmmmmmmmmm.

Never experienced any of that with my Fords.

Might have with my GMC, but it was just a little pile of rust w/wheels after 4 years.

That black truck picture is not even a GM pic. That's what someone drew up. I bet it looks close to that though.
