In case anyone is wanting to know, this is officially the GMTK2XX platform.

I'm going to start officially referring to them as either GMTK2 or K2. Anyone who says "NNNBS" will most likely receive a swift punch in the jugular.

What does the k2xx part mean?

Same thing gmt400 means.... Its the platform designation

Correct. Before the bailout GM had plans of a "next generation full frame" platform called the CXX platform. Unfortunately that never happened. In fact, these new trucks are basically still on the basic GMT900 platform. I'm guessing K2XX is derived somehow from the CXX platform.

I was thinking the 2XX part was like the new 1500, 2500, 3500 etc but forgot its the platform

So did GM before the bailout in 08 have a totally new frame in the works to replace the GMT900s? But instead they took the existing 900 frame an just put a different wrapper on it to look different when it really isnt by much?
