Spied: 2017 GMC Sierra 2500/3500 Chassis Cab - PickupTrucks.com
"Recently we've caught the updated Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra light-duty pickups out on their first test runs. … We caught a pair of 2016 GMC Sierra Heavy Duty prototypes (one crew-cab 2500 near maximum payload and towing capacity, and the other an empty chassis-cab Duramax) coming in from a run. "Much like the light-duty trucks we've seen before, the Sierra looks to be hiding a moderate front-end refresh, with a new front end, hood cuts, a revised grille and updated headlights. "We suspect the bigger news is under the hood, where the GM HD trucks are reported to get upgraded versions of the Duramax V-8 turbo-diesel. "A version of the 10-speed transmission co-developed with Ford is also likely to make it into the heavy-duty pickups by 2018. ". I think the truck makers should follow the new SUV concept of making the front bumpers into a skid plate. I would also like to see a transformed truck bed such as a bed that can be expanded in length or the side of the bed that folds down as a flat bed. I personally lost that new truck excitement, no new truck excites me anymore and I believe I am not alone. The truck makers spend too much time in changes to the looks of the truck but we all know its the same truck underneath it all, but make its practicable, useable, give us something new that makes sense.
