GM's really missing out on the sport truck market, because the current Silverado SS is kind of a joke compared with the Lightning and SRT-10 Ram. However, if they do use a supercharged 6.0, it should be pretty interesting. I would think it would be RWD only, though, because it would be very expensive to get an AWD system setup to handle that much torque (yes, I know of the cyclone/typhoon, but I doubt we'd see anything like that).

It's nice to see GM starting to at least think about this, though.
