meh....
Much like the majority of hypo stuff GM does either by themselves or with others, the power is there but the looks aren't.
The exception being the new ZR-1.

I know it's 100% subjective, but to me color keyed grills seem to help all the hideous trucks out looks wise.
Losing the chrome really helps the Tundra (Rocketscience picked up a chrome Tundra grill up for me in Seattle that I'm going to try and sand and paint) The '08 Super Duty should ONLY have the Harley grill and that Chevy pictured has really been improved without the huge chrome strip......again, IMHO.

Yeah, that definitely looks about 10x better than one with chrome all over the front end.
Actually, at first glance it looks kinda like an older Escalade front end.

To me, it looks like that there should be some ground effects along the side and rear of the truck.
The front ground effects give it a somewhat agressive look but then the sides look pretty bare.

It's a 2wd racing (I guess that's what you'd call it) truck...The bumper doesn't need to be up real high...
I think they should either drop the rear end some more, or put some ground effects on it...

Which is about 4703 Furlongs from 11 second 1/4 mile times
