They said that they have things planned to keep the truck fresh. Right now, only the 6.2 get the 8-speeds, which are very smooth. I had a chance to drive a new Denali with the MRC and the 8-speed. Vurrrry nice.

If they were going for efficiency, sure, but they will probably get it around the 30mpg marker and tweak for torque.
