Base model can be yours for a mere $92,500 + TTL
I’d bet that the High Country model with the Duramax diesel will be in the neighborhood of $75K MSRP with all the options checked.
So basically a luxury pickup truck for the price of a Range Rover Sport or a very decent BMW X5. I like the new Silverado, but not that much.
I also noticed that 6 tons of towing capacity out of a half ton is pretty easy to configure from every manufacturer except Toyota now. Kind of negates the point of a tougher riding 3/4 ton truck IMO.

Speaking of expensive trucks, have you seen the 2019 Ram Limited? Not a bad looking truck either. I really like the inside

Even if the engine can pull 12k lbs, that seems a bit much for a half ton. I’d still go with the 3/4 if I’m regularly towing loads that heavy.

I know Toyota lags behind the big 3 in market share as far as pick ups go but they've got a ton of ground to make up with their next gen Tundra, whenever that may be. The most recent update freshened the cosmetics but everything underneath is basically still the same powertrain that came out in the 2nd Gen in 2007.
Think about how much the big 3 pickups have changed in a decade. They're all offering turbo 6s or diesel along with the big v8s. I believe the Tundras only options are basic v6 and old arse v8.
