Chrome
The denali thing has always been chrome
But millennials don’t like chrome, so they’ve given us dark chrome
But not everywhere
Dark chrome on grille and GMC badges
Dark chrome on rear GMC badge
All the rest of it is normal chrome
Front recovery hooks
Wing mirror caps
Door handles and window treatments
Door badges
All the other tailgate badging
Isn’t there a rule about mixing chromes?
HD embossed grille
On driver side but not passenger
Surprised it doesn’t say HDNA
Hood
Very cadillac looking scoop blade
It’s actually functional tho
Headlights
New running light design, looks pretty cool
Says GMC in the housing - not uncommon
Arrows helping install is uncommon
2500 markers
It says HD in a lot of places here
But it’s technically the 2500 so you get that here
al so dark chrome
Marker lights
On roof
Offset fin - classic GM
Still have floppy antenna too
But also on sides of the wheel arches

Paint
This is one of my favorite things
Redwood metallic BANGS
Been wanting to make a downtown brown joke
Pairs exquisitely with interior “Alpine Umber”
Fender badge
Topographical map underlay
Denali supple peak coordinates
Ultimate trim designation - very maserati of them
Also shoutout to the Allison trans….?
I don’t pretend to be a manly man…care?
Door handles
Only keyless on front doors
Just like the windows are only auto up/down in front
Power running boards
Nice, but dont come out quite far enough
Bed steps
In front of bed next to cab
Apparently Ford did this with the new 250
People are NOT happy about it…in either camp
Classic GM bumper steps
Multipro tailgate
Origami

Stitching & piping
Wood in door
Double glove box
Upper one gets stuck
Could be one-off since 1500 didnt

Fronts get ultimate badge***
And fancy carpets all around
Fronts trimmed with metal
Front seats
