Even if it did meet your needs, you can't buy it for half a year or so anyways so whats the point in knowing the details? At any rate, you can count on it being more than the outgoing model (10,000+ max), because its always more than the outgoing model. I expect that the 4.3 should be able to meet your towing needs (but not by much), the 5.3 would be fine, and the 6.2 would be more than adequate.



On that note ... I hate how automakers tease out the release of a product these days. The first time the public should see the design is right before it goes into production. It seems to me that by showing off the amazing new products you have up your sleeve, you discourage people from buying your current vehicles.
