#138 of 707 Over time it will get better? by the_big_al Jun 27, 2008 (3:16 pm)
OKay here's my 2 cents worth. First Impressions? eh, I think I like the Tahoe and Avalanch front ends better but... just like my reaction to the new Superman Suit (if anyone even cares there's a new Superman Movie coming out in 2 weeks ), I am not sure I like it yet, bet I think over time it will grow on me. I would buy. I think that it is interesting that the SUV and the Truck versions now have distinctly different front ends and rears. It started with the last generation, but now it's like barely even a body panel is the same. I have never been a fan of pronounced fenders, and so this is a little bit off putting but I will see how it grows on me.
#139 of 707 Must see in person by ddf1 Jun 13, 2006 (7:53 pm)
At first glance it didn't impress me either, I do like how the front end gives the illusion that it is wider, but I think it is one of those trucks that will be loved over time. It probably looks a lot better in person. When I first saw the 97 F-150 design I hated it. But it grew on me and now I think it is a sharp looking truck for a Ford. But the fender flares have got to go. The H3 has those same "goofy" flares. It reminds me of a juiced up Jeep Liberty with shoulder pads! This is a full size truck! It should walk the talk not be more show than go. Replies to this message: jerrymcshane1 (Jun 15, 2006 12:13 pm)

#141 of 707 Bluetooth & Navigation by corwinc Jun 20, 2006 (10:06 am)
I love my 04 Silverado. Would not trade it for anything (except maybe the 07). I am excited about the 07. I am hoping that it has Bluetooth and Navigation options. I drive a lot for my job and having those 2 options would really make the Silverado the complete package for me. Has anyone heard if it will have these options?   Additionally, I would like to see some photos or artists renditions of what the 07 will look like. Does anyone know where I can check these out?
#142 of 707 Navigation by metalphoenix79 Jun 20, 2006 (12:34 pm)
As quoted by edmunds.com..."Higher-grade materials and additional high-tech options like navigation systems should make both the Silverado and the Sierra more stylish and comfortable inside."   Below is a link to some pics and a small description.   http://www.edmunds.com/insideline/do/GeneralFuture/articleId=115770
#143 of 707 Excellent Design by iqbaldhillon2 Jun 23, 2006 (3:37 pm)
I love the look of the new 2007 Silverado. I am looking for a new Fullsize truck. I like the 2007 Tundra and 2007 Silverado they are both great trucks. Which one should I buy. I am deciding on buying them next year in the summer. Replies to this message: rsholland (Jun 25, 2006 5:38 am)

Replying to: iqbaldhillon2 (Jun 23, 2006 3:37 pm) Which one should I buy   Nobody here knows enough about either vehicle at this point to offer any recommendations, as only a few details have been released.   Bob
#145 of 707 Looks Like A Real Truck To Me by johnbplus9 Jun 29, 2006 (4:55 pm)
For the folks that don't like the look of this truck, I'm trying, but am having a hard time seeing it through your eyes. Let's face it - a truck should be something for a man to drive, not an adolescent freakfest (I for one would not be caught dead in the Hummer H2 or previous Avalanche). For me this truck has a good solid appearance - the chrome and mild flares add some mild retro style without going overboard.   I have an '03 F150 Supercrew now. This Silverado is the first of the new pickup generation - F150, Titan, and '07 Tundra included, that I would consider trading for.

Replying to: johnbplus9 (Jun 29, 2006 4:55 pm) I feel almost the same way you do. I have seen more rabid complaints regarding the styling of these trucks than for any other vehicle I can remember. I think that, if the new trucks have features, capabilities, and pricing that are competitive with other full-size trucks, they will have no problem selling them, even if the styling doesn't please everyone.

Replying to: corvette (Jun 30, 2006 3:15 pm) Okay so this truck ain't so hot in the styling market... but I would be curious to see what was said back in '99 when the current generation debuted? What was said then? "Oh it's not enough of a change!" "It looks to much like what we have now!" "GM screwed up this time!"   Yet look at how many of them are on the road... and I like the 99-02 design. Not so much the 03-current but I could deal with it especially since the Chevy is the most capable truck on the road right now. So people might say what they want about how the truck looks, but there will be one in my driveway eventually if it's got the capabilities I need.... (that is also depending on my ability to afford one - I may have to wait until they start hitting the used lots )
