Did a quick look on the Chevy site and the 2014s have improved the brakes on the 1500s with 4 wheel discs all the way around. With the 6.2 engine, best in class power, 3.73 gears and bigger rear axle, NHT package and 21 miles per gallon with 420 HP.....hmmm:

I might have to replace my wife's Tahoe with that but I'll keep my camper on the 3/4 for now.
