2014 3500HD button on dash. What does it do?

I don't know about 2020 GM's being the first to have PTO's off the transmission (if I read that right). My 2011 F250 has the Allison trans that is pto capable, but was only offered as an option by Ford on the F350.
I always though it would be cool to power a big generator head off the truck.

within GMC in the HD class what ever that means, it was past from the GMC website... but op truck in question is a 2014 and it has it but it's a 350 ... I simply wanted to know the functionality of the PTO. here is the link I pasted it from.

Doesn’t your truck have a Torqshift transmission?

My IH-7500 has an Allison Rugged Duty Series and the PTO is on the side of the transmission.
My Ram 5500 has a PTO which I can turn on/off via a switch on the dash, but I don’t have a dump bed (would love to have a PTO air compressor, but BIG $)

I checked my specs, you are correct. Not sure where I got Allison from, but that has been my belief for the past 10 years!
