Spied: 2017 GMC Sierra 2500/3500 Chassis Cab PickupTrucks.com

The GM light-duty and heavy-duty pickup trucks look like they'll be coming to market refreshed for 2017 or 2018. Our spy shooters are seeing both of them running all sorts of loaded and empty test loops, likely to work out the bugs on a modified or upgraded powertrain. Here's their latest report:
"Recently we've caught the updated Chevrolet Silverado and GMC Sierra light-duty pickups out on their first test runs. … We caught a pair of 2016 GMC Sierra Heavy Duty prototypes (one crew-cab 2500 near maximum payload and towing capacity, and the other an empty chassis-cab Duramax) coming in from a run.
"Much like the light-duty trucks we've seen before, the Sierra looks to be hiding a moderate front-end refresh, with a new front end, hood cuts, a revised grille and updated headlights.
I would love to see Voltec become an option for the HD's. Quick option package would add 300 ft lb of torque and 100 hp. 550hp and 1000ftlb of torque would be pretty amazing
Wonder if GM will update the 6.0L Gas or change to the 6.2L and if GM will use the 8-speed Auto on the gas versions.
