    Spying: The Inside (and Outside) Story of the 2019 Chevrolet Silverado

    A fresh stack of spy shots of the upcoming 2019 Chevrolet Silverado has arrived and we have gotten our first look at the interior.

    The picture reveals that the blocky dash design of the current truck is sticking around. The center stack design is similar to what you'll find in the GMC Acadia. It appears this mule is running a new version of Chevrolet's MyLink system with a new status bar along the bottom.

    We also got some new clues on the 2019 Silverado's exterior. It appears Chevrolet is keeping the blocky profile shape. The front end gets new headlights with LEDs and a revised bumper.

    We still don't know much about powertrains for the 2019 Silverado except that a 10-speed automatic that was jointly developed with Ford will be showing up.

    inside looks cool.  Outside looks like maybe Chevy has been sniffing Ford glue; it's almost got some shaping like the F150's.  And not digging the little hofmeister kink on the base of the rear door window.

    But hey its all spy photos so who knows what it will really look like.  I do like the current ones, they way they have massaged the look the last couple years.

    SHould be good.  With the updated 18 F-150 and this and a new ram coming for 19, should be really awesome.  I think there are a couple japanese Fullsize trucks too, but they don't count.

    The Titan was redesigned a couple years ago, but the Tundra dates back over a decade, with an MCE 4 years ago...wonder when an all-new one incoming...

    I am not a big fan of the Titan's design and the lack of a regular cab/short bed model is annoying.  The Tundra is so far behind, particularly in powertrain tech it is insane.  Not to mention the last gen F-150 dash.  Now, just because it is old doesn't mean it can't be modern.  The Ram has been constantly updated which has kept it competitive.

    Nissan probably wisely chose not to offer a regular cab/short bed combo, it would have sold maybe a few dozen units annually, at most?   No demand anymore for such a body style...I think Ford and GM offer such a combination, but I can't recall the last time I saw one...

    It's my absolute favorite fullsize truck bodystyle... followed by regular cab longbed.  I still see them from time to time... local GMC dealer has an SLE Z71 in their showroom right now.  :wub:

    I know you like them, I like them also..I esp. like the older regular cab short beds w/ the old school step side beds.  But in today's market, it seems anything that isn't a 4dr isn't selling well...

    (If I ever had an old truck as a hobby vehicle, I'd want an '80s Chevy or GMC short bed step side...always liked the look).

    I've never cared for the 'fenderside' versions of any truck of any generation after the early 60s- they just look like 2 different trucks welded together IMO. Even the '57 F-250 I owned was a Styleside (first year).

    They sell good here.  I see tons of new RC short beds, if not I am sure GM, Ford, and Ram would have discontinued it, but they haven't for a reason.

    • Very Cool, Seems Kia has released a teaser of their press release for tomorrow. 10am EST or 7am PST will be an exciting time.  Kia Global Media Center : Kia America Returns to the New York International Auto Show
    • Today's news covers that #47 has signed off on the GOP plan to push his 2017 Billionaire tax cuts through by bringing back the 40% tax bracket on Singled making over $650,000 or couples making over $750,000 taxing the millionaires to give the Billionaires a continued tax break. The reason for bringing this up is that a large number of Millionaires are owners of dealerships and already some are saying they could see closing dealerships, example Chrysler dealerships. On top of this is a number of recent videos talking about used autos not selling at auction and dealerships seeing a big decline in used auto sales. Much of this brought on by very crazy low lease rates on EVs, hybrids with ICE being the most expensive.  Now you have Tariffs, and the auto industry is a total mess. As such, I agree with folks here that we will see some name brands close, this tariff war is going to force companies to look and cut brands that are not profitable.
    • There is over abundance for sure, especially when China has 100 EV car makers and eventually they will spread out past China.   Not only will the tariffs kill off some weak brands, but it is going to crush a lot of suppliers once the supply chains get all destroyed.  Not to mention dealerships that close up and job losses there.
    • The tariffs definitely put Stellantis in a bit of a pickle.
    • Agree that this whole Tariff mess will take out those that are already on deaths door. This I suspect could clean out a few of the early name plates. Sad that so many billions was wasted by an idiot CEO trying to rebuild a dead industry in Italy with trying to bring back poorly built name plates. Alfa Romeo, Maserati should have never been invested in. But that can now be said for more American name plates too. Time to let Chrysler die with dignity. In my humble opinion Buick other than China should just be put into the history books. GM = Entry level Chevrolet - Mid level GMC and luxury Cadillac. We still have an overabundance on name plates globally.
