2016 silverado/sierra duramax next Gen ??
Have been noticing more photos of 2500 duramax trucks and the hoods seem to be camouflaged with more venting. Could this be from a next Gen duramax ??

Correct an early 2017 model is when the new post-LML Duramax is suppose to hit the market. I haven't heard anything in regards to frame changes. 2011 brought an all new improved chassis so I am doubting any major changes in this area for the next gen. We'll see...
Rumor is 8-speed Allison with increased HP/TQ numbers on the motor and changes likely coming in the emissions system. Hood vents that I have seen are only on the HD line but not sure at this point if anyone knows if its cooling or air intake related. My guess would be some kind of active air intake for the Dmax similar to what Ram started offering a year or two ago. Will be interesting to see if GM sticks with the CP4 "grenade" pump on these trucks.
