well atleast there's some sort of reasoning behind it, maybe one day they figure out away to make it look normal

If I was shopping for a new truck I can tell your right now that it wouldn't be a Silverado. They just look all wrong to me. I'd probably go for the Sierra instead.

I completely disagree

Re: just a bit curious

No Offense Blender, but, how can you disagree?

Those big Chrome "Wings" on the corners of the bumper Don't flow with anything! It looks like they just slapped those on at the last minute. Now don't get me wrong everyone is entitled to their own opinion as are you. Hmmmm Maybe I should start a poll?

Ya got one vote for no good on the trucks
hoods are wacked vortec plastic inserts, front bumper is wacked too, inside door panels all plastic showin no fabric at all, even the bed of the truck is a bit wacky the front bulkhead is flimsy as hell and there plastic plugs all in it.

Although the new clearence lights are pretty sweet

I know what your talking about though. Maybe it's just Chevy's way of making the tailpipe look "cool"

I just bought a new 2500HD gas (which does not have the fugly tailpipe) and I love the new style both inside and out. The Sierras are alright also but I had to go with the Silverado. To me...this is one of the best looking body styles yet.

Re: just a bit curious

I think the wing thing in the front bumper is only on the 3500 Dually and I agree it looks really bad. So, no problem...I just wouldn't buy one...
