The one BIGGIE IMHO that sucks is the 32 gallon tank!

the first thing that comes out is the stock tank. I'll put a titan 55 gal replacement in, with 7600# of payload I think I can carry a couple extra gallons of fuel.

back to the drawing board GM

Back to the drawing board for what?

here's a list of 2020 gm HD expectations

2020 Silverado HD Expectations
Platform:
New GM T1 platform
Exterior:
All-new exterior design similar to that of new Silverado 1500 that debuted for 2019 model year (see more on 2019 Silverado 1500)
Larger size and exterior footprint, along with larger cabs and beds than its predecessor
Lighter than its predecessor thanks to mixed-material design, including weight-saving measures in the frame and using aluminum swing panels (hood, doors, tailgate)
Roll-formed steel bed that’s stronger than its predecessor
Power tailgate available
New, more integrated placement of DEF tank that disguises it better than K2 models
Improved CornerStep rear bumper
New box access step ahead of the wheel wells
High-tech LED front headlights
LED lighting signatures in the front (Daytime Running Lights) and rear
Interior:
New interior design
Introduction of next-generation Chevrolet infotainment system (third-generation)
Introduction of new towing technologies
Powertrain:
Gasoline: the current models’ 6.0L V8 L96 will be replaced with a new 6.6L V-8 gasoline engine making around 400 horsepower and 450 pound-feet of torque, mated to:
A new GM 8-speed heavy duty automatic transmission for Sierra 2500HD models
A new 9-speed Allison heavy duty automatic transmission for Sierra 3500HD models
Diesel: the 6.6L Duramax Diesel L5P engine introduced for the 2017 Sierra HD will likely carry over with 445 horsepower and 910 pound-feet of torque mated to a new 9-speed Allison heavy duty automatic transmission

I'm not seeing anything here that makes me think GM will win any contests. they still can't tow 24,000 pounds always be a day late and dollar short
