I hope so. And the way the new bumper sticks out kinda makes me think they went bigger.

Re: H3 ALPHA Pics and Video
Since I tow my boat all the time, I'm particularly happy about the GREATLY increased tow rating with the H3!
The front elocker will not be on the list of improvements from what I'm told BUT it'll mean that you can after market one because it'll take it. OH JOY!!!!!
That H2 looks awesome with that new 6.2 and six speed. Maybe the Denali's getting the trade in too!?!

Looks about the same to me.. Just the lack of black making it stand out more..

The new bumper is for "car to truck capability". That way when you hit that car infront of you, you don't ride up over the top of the rear bumper. Nothing to do with the front axle.

Ahhh, thanks for the clarification. 
Are the mounting points the same so you can swap back to an old bumper and get your approach angle back?

At least we don't require the rear bar like in Europe. I wonder how hard it would be to remove when off-roading? I understand the possible liability if you remove it for highway driving and run over a Prius (that does sound like fun though).

Thankfully no rear bar. How about the Adventure package on V8?
