2.Heavier rear end gears instead of the 3.42. I would like 3.73 or 4.10
3.I would like them bring back the old chevy 350 (5.7 liter) v8.
4.Maybe do what fords doing with the turbo charged v-6.
5.Max trailer kit option for all models not just the LTZ (i think).
6.I would Love to have the option of Rubber flooring in all interior option not just the WT.
I live out in the mud and dirt and forget carpeting I like the rubber with the bigger engine for towing. You get it dirty you just rinse it out with the hose.
7. Built in Navi.
8. Home link option in all interior models
9.Remove those stupid tire sensor or make it so you can relearn them for different tires. we have one up at work and if you put the wrong tires the sensor stays on.
10.More storage space and hidden storage in the truck.
11. All come with or optional 4&7way plug in.
12. BIGGER MIRRORS.
1. Agreed, GM has no Raptor, Power Wagon or Rubicon competitor
2. Not needed as much with todays 6sp autos
3. Not going to happen, technology marchs on
4. Long term reliablity is still questionable on this much tech in a work truck. Seen that engine on a stand at the auto show and I'm not sure I'd want it for a long term vehicle.
5. I think the trailer pkg is availble on other models
6. Agreed
7. HE!! NO, don't want NAV, OnStar or XM radio!
8. Not familiar enough to make decision
9. Federal mandate to have these BUT GM could make it more user friendly
10.---
11. 7 pin plug should only come with towing option
12. Aren't there towing mirrors available now?

Everyone wants bigger badder.
I tnink the new half tons are getting ridiculously big.
My 2001 Silverado looks sleeker and more modern than the new ones.
I`m really wanting a mid sized truck next time around.
If they finally manage to get some gas mileage out of the small truck that`s where I`m going.
You can`t even reach over the bed rail and grab something out of the bed of the truck anymore in the new half tons they are so high now.
I`d tell all three GM ,Ford ,and Chrysler to tone it down on size and leave the capibilities there.
