Sounds like a refresh. The refinements all seem fine but incremental. Surprised the drivetrains weren't revised to improve gas mileage, I think Toyota lags here. I bet they lose sales to the new Chevy...and Dodge and Ford based on what's written here.

The old interior was harsh, they should have included interior pics.

Cool truck.  Still ugly.

Looks like the same truck.  I like the look of the current version, was just hoping for more of an evolution. Looks like an update.

I would have expected a power increase from the 5.7, even if just slightly.  The numbers are identical to my '07.  Still a great motor with good power. 

It'll be interesting to see the interior.

The interior is all Ford, close enough.

If I needed a new half ton the Tundra would be it, followed closely by the F-150. That 5.7 is one nice unit.

At minimum this is a big improvement for the Tundra.

The new GMC with diesel option for me.

Yup, Agree.

^^ Thats a good looking truck, but man, so many plastic things on the front of the truck. Long gone are the days where you could play bumper tag with your buddies

If things came down to exterior styling alone, this would be last on my list behind the GMC, F150 and Ram (in other order).

Yes, definitely big improvement.  The round vents do remind me of a Ford. 

If I were buying a truck soon, I'd have to test drive them all before choosing.  Very good options out there right now.  However, leading candidates for me would be Tundra and F-150.

LOL...I learned to drive on a turquoise GMC with white bumpers(painted), 3 on the column.

That is sweet!!! Yes, back when trucks could take a beating without having to worry about the rear seat TV monitors falling off or the power running boards falling off

It's a refresh, not much you can do with 3 box desigms like trucks. If they go too radical it's dated in a few years, this will look good for a long time without upsetting rather conservative pickup buyers.

[DKaz]

I know several contractors who's moved from Chevy and Ford to a Tundra and they said they will never look back. If price was an issue, I'd buy a 3-4 year old Tundra instead. I hope they didn't get rid of the bench front seat in the lower trims double cabs.

[Northernridge]

I keep saying that I'm going buy a Ford or Toyota but I'm on my 4th GMC and have owned one Dodge...so I'll probably just buy another GM.

There, I'm buying the GMC next.

**BONUS**  You can get a factory warrantied supercharger from TRD!!

OMG put LED running lights on anything and you guys love it! That GM is pathetic - please tell me thats not pic of the soon to be released new Chev?! Its the same damn thing with stupid cheap aftermarket running LED lights! Fearless prediction - it will when "Truck of the Year" this year when its released - you know why?! Because Dodge, Ford and GM stagger their releases so when any of them release a new truck it wins all kinds of awards - why? Because nothing else NEW is being released that year! Anyway gonna get off my soap box now!

Interior is definitely a step up - but still looks very Tundraish - again a very conservative upgrade from Toyota. Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't the center IP look pretty much exactly like the existing truck? Maybe an upgraded screen but thats about it. Been a while since I've been in my buddies 2010 limited but pretty unmistakeably a Tundra. That being said I think they're the nicest looking trucks on the road and that  5.7L is STUPID fast! Though the new Ecoboost 6 is pretty quick too.
