Power liftgate and 6 speed tranny's!!!! YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Engine offerings for the new SUVs include:

4.8L iron block (RPO LY2), rated at 290 horsepower (216 kw)*
5.3L iron block (RPO LY5) with Displacement On Demand technology, rated at 320 horsepower (238 kw)* (including E85-capable version – RPO LMG)
5.3L aluminum block (RPO LC9) with Displacement On Demand technology and E85 capability, rated at 320 horsepower (238 kw)*
6.0L iron block (LY6) heavy-duty engine with variable valve timing, rated at 350 horsepower (260 kw)*
6.0L aluminum block (L76) with Displacement On Demand technology and variable valve timing, rated at 355 horsepower (264 kw)*
6.2L aluminum block (L92) with variable valve timing, capable of 380 and 400 horsepower (283 kw to 298 kw)*

A new Hydra-Matic 6L80 six-speed automatic transmission is matched with the 6.2L engine.

This means same old 4 speeds with the rest. Big dissapointment. GM's bean counters left the interior alone and swarmed over powertrain. I was really hoping for 6 speeds on everything except the 4.8L The media will not overlook GM's obsession with 4 speeds. GM needed to knock this out of the park - the interior looks like a homerun, powertrain is a double at best.

James - you suck.

What do you expect from a mechanic/salesman/janitor/business manager?

James may have honestly believed his info was correct, so let's not be to hard on him. We should all have been leery of such detailed information coming out so far in advance that was shared so freely.

And let's wait and see how they perform before condemning the powertrains. I think we are pretty confident that the gas mileage will continue to be class-leading, as they've already said there will be improvements across the board. And with the horsepower increases, and increased availability of the larger engines, power shouldn't be a problem either (provided they avoided Ford-like gross increases in weight - but with all the extra equipment added, that's going to be tough). Maybe the smoother transitions between narrower ratios will be missed without the 6-speeds, but let's drive them first, shall we?

So the Tahoe will have 320 hp?
The Denali 350hp/Escalade 355hp (to stay ahead,LOL)?
The ESV/Denali XL/EXT 380hp/400hp?

Not much better,like buying a K&N!
