Saw this today doesn't really say much but looks like gm is back at it again....im guessing we should expect to see some changes. http://news.pickuptrucks.com/2014/07/spied-2016-2017-chevroletgmc-duramax.html

Dang.... Look at the size of the urea tank!!!! Overall should be a good showing, I know the 6.7 ford is said to have us out gunned but I just don't see it. 6.7 powerstrokes ar good running trucks I drove one about 100 miles with a 32' four horse loaded, but it just felt doggie compared to the LML. Just my opinion though, the 6.7 cummins sure never impressed me
Hmm.......I told my wife I was going to drive my 11' til the wheels fell off!!! But this might change that.
Mike I thought the twin setup wass old...as in the they tried it a while back, and couldnt control underhood temps?
What are they doing about the crank shaft??????? 1000ftlbs will bust a lml crank in short order, in REAL world driving conditions like towing and what not. No I don't care to hear about Billy's truck with 1800ftlbs that he daily drives with a 60ft lowboy behind it.
They have a new ram air hood and a bigger single turbo from what I've read at least, they put a cover over the urea tank so maybe they moved it finally or are just retarded.
That picture is ~4 years old. Supposedly GM couldnt control underhood temps with that setup, so they scrapped it in favor of the traditional single VGT that we see on the LML today.
I wish i could show you guys what i work on daily. The 2017 dmaxs are pretty badass engines. Lots of things have changed
