I dunno what may have changed besides the body and dash, but unless they've redesigned the drivetrain and steering linkage, it will still be a double clunkerado.

Yeah, because they all clunk :screwy: :shakehead :rolleyes:

I know myself and about 3 guys at work with 1999-2002 Silverados that do not clunk. mileage ranges from about 50k (mine) up to about 200,000

I know the 2007's are getting a pretty big boost in HP (about 50 across the board over the 2006, IIRC). The interior and exterior are all totally different.

I saw a new Tahoe the other day with the new dash and was told it's the same as the 07 Silverado but the truck isn't out yet.

The truck is not out yet. I test drove an 2007 Avalanche the other day, and there are some changes.

Electronicly controlled steering, so I guess no clunk
Fully boxed frame
Better gas mileage
Displacement on demand
More flex fuel models
More comfortable and better looking interior
Extremely smooth ride
Suposedly more power, I could not tell much difference compared to my silverado, but then again the avalanche weighs more

All and all I would say the Avalanche I drove was more comfortable and had a better interior than the 2005 Escalades. So if the new silverado is comparable, I would say they have defenantly made some improvements.

Oh, WTF?:screwy: I thought GM knew better than that after the Saturn.

Great, I'll be real excited to get one of those...

Real handy if your battery's dead and you need a tow.

Ohh, never thought of that:banghead:. That is dumb. Gone would be the days of hauling my broke down truck a fewm miles home by a chain huh.

Drive by wire.. yuck.. not sure I want the computer telling me how much it thinks I need to turn. isn't that on the LT3 only?

I do like the HP increase.. 6.0 with 367HP.. I can handle that.

I went to the Quarter Horse Congress and they had a 07 GMC Denali and it had the new dash. I got to set in it and boy was it sweet...I liked it but I like the old dash too. I guess I just don't need all that fancy stuff.
