2019 Chevy Silverado Trailboss

Tail lights on that new Chevy look like Ford tail lights.

Um, yeah the square wheel wells have been a staple of GM trucks since the '73 models and still appear to be, except They're rounded on the top now. Will have to see in person if there's more "room" compared to past models.

Heeeyyyy GD

I seen the first new model Ram on the road this week.

Cool!
New model HD? Testing??
Have t seen a lot of the new half tons, but they're not growing on me in the looks department....yet. Hope they do something different than the catfish grille, lol.
This coming from a me who owns what I consider to be the least attractive Ram front clip since 1993.
I've grown to love it like having an ugly kid, but I almost bought a 2004 front clip back in the day and swapped it!

Beauty is in the eye of the beer holder though.
I like the '19 Silverados, not so much for the GMC variants though and love the new Superduty looks.
Gotta figure it's increasingly tougher every time to come up with a fresh, modern attractive design with out borrowing too muc from prev models or other mfg.

The ole 07 Dogdee doesn't get many miles on it these days so thinking it'll be my 12 year olds first car. That gives a solid 3+ years to see what the 5th gen Mega cabs look like and how they perform.

HD's are still in camo.

I don't care for the new Chevrolet looks but you know what they say about opinions. At least there got rid of those square fenders around the wheels.

Well you said it about opinions, but the squareish wheel openings will be back...it's been a GM on again, off again design element since the early 70's. Having owned about 10 GM trucks, 4 Fords, and even a Dodge, most owners don't give a rat turds worth of thought to shape of the wheel openings. In fact I personally never gave it a thought until the advent of the forum and the idiotic back and forth brand bashing threads, which is why I typically avoid them. This thread started as one of those threads as it was created with that intent by RVnets in house resident basher, Mr Onefordfish or whatever in the hell his name is. They are however good reading just for laughs, only to see how childish grown me can be.

LOL... This coming from a once Chevy owner a '87 and a '92 truck with the '87 being the last good looking Chevy truck IMO (Two tone Gray and Black with red pin stripe) and with a TBI 350 it ran like a scalded dog for back in the day.

Sincerely,
OneFordFish :W

LOL.....hey Onefordfish, I can sling some shade with the best of em if required, spent 30 years sitting in assorted watering holes to learn the specifics.

I can tell... :B

BTW...My parents have a 2016 Silverado Duramax that they use to pull their camper. It's a nice truck but that DEF tank location is %*@#$$.

This thread made me look at my 15 GMC wheel openings. Theyre closer in size and shape to an 80's model than I realized. **** I like this truck and the looks of it.

That being said I have been secretly looking at F350 SRW Lariats lately, but these numbskull local dealers dont order them in with 8' beds with CCs unless they're XLs or XLTs. I am multivehicinomational.
