Real Pirate,
Haha! You got me on wording.
I meant that they can't come up with an attractive design.
And yes, ground clearance is an issue too!

I guess Chevy and ford feel they need to switch body styles so often to keep up with Dodge

 keep up with Dodge


Funny you say that. Was looking at a co-workers new f-150 King Ranch. The front end reminds me of a mix between a Dodge and a Tundra. Rear end is a straight rip-off of a Tundra. Amd the interior pin striping on the seats was god awful (not sure if thats all King Ranches now or what). The interior really tuned me off. The King Ranch package had me willing to switch to Ford on my next vehicle too.

I'm also not a huge fan of these Chevy front ends. They try to do too much with these design changes.

Anybody have a idea when ford is changing the body style of the f250s? That's what I'm waiting on to get a new one.

Got a 14 silverado and like the front I most have gotten one built on a Wed because it has been good so far. Then again I don't keep more than a few years anyway

That thing is UGLY! Maybe after a small facelift it will look better.

Yeah I'm curious what it will look like when some better pictures come around, but if I was buying I'd wait till those hit the lot and buy an old body style

You know the Transformer the others didn't talk about? The one with Downs?

That's it.

Not terrible if you ripped that crap off the lower front bumper. I didn't catch that it wAs a z71 at first. Can imagine off reading and ripping that thing off.

I like it for the most part.

One LED strip is alright under the headlights, but I don't really like the look of the lower LED strip. And as others have said the whole lower part of the bumper needs to come off.

ETA: From the article I found
quote:

Other changes for 2016 will include wider availability of an 8-speed automatic transmission.

And for the interior, the 2016 Silverado 1500 will feature an updated Chevy MyLink infotainment system with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay smartphone integration. A few new safety features will also be included.
