2020 GM HD Pickups Like Jayco For Testing
I'm a big fan of the GM-HD Duramax trucks. I just ran across this link that talks a bit about lighting but what caught my eye was the different Jayco's that they were using for towing tests -

Can't wait for this next generation to come out!

I just hope they move the DEF tank location on this next generation.

Secondly, they really need some additional space between the door and the center console for us larger folks.

Well the reveal has happened. Not too much detail yet but a new gas engine and then the Duramax gets a ten speed Allison both sound very intriguing.

I like it from all angles - except for straight on to the front grill. I've said it before with many other reveals in the past but I just can't imagine that I'll get to like the front grill in this case. I hope that the GMC version looks better!

Not a fan, I prefer the style we have but maybe I'm just partial.....

As usual, GM truck technology/roominess is about 3 years behind Ford/Dodge.
