Some rumored details about the 2007 models came my way recently...

The six-speed ZF manual goes bye-bye for 2007... Only the Allison will be available.

More computer control - from A/C control and a host of heretofore switch-selectable stuff.

More bling inside the cab.

I'm told that from a distance, the average person would be hard pressed to tell the difference in body style from the current trucks. I sorta expected that based on the long-held conservative nature of GM.

There are some photos of the new trucks floating the Internet somewhere. I haven't found them, but apparently, some spy photos were taken while some GM engineers were out on a short road trip - on public streets. ;)

Really cannot tell too much from the photos with all that cladding on there. Personally, I hope they do something about the headlights. I really (really!) do not care for the current style that they brought over from the Avalanche. The GMC version looks a little better, but I'd wish for something more handsome.

Also disappointed to see no manual tranny. I understand the advantages on their end by tying the engine and transmission together for computer control. But there is just something I prefer about having a stick shift.
