Any specs on tow capacities?

Looks good. They should bring one like the one pictured with the manual though.

Interesting crew cab. No pillar between the front and rear door. Would certainly make entry and exit easier. Wonder if it was just missing for the photo? Almost has to be.

My Titan does not have a pillar either. The front seat belt is attached to the rear door. I really like that plus the door folds all the way back about 170deg toward the bed. Makes loading kids and bags easy in a parking lot. That door is the thing I hate about my Ford Super Dutys.

From the position of the handles in the upper pic and the position of the latch on the lowest pic I think the door is going to hinge off of the pillar and that is was removed for the pics. I sure wish my wifes extended cab F150 open up differently. No pillarm but the front door goes so far back it is a pain to put groceries ect in the back seat if there is not room to keep the front door open. It will be interesting to see one in person anyway though I don't see myself rushing out to buy one right off.

Thats what i was thinking. Too bad they couldnt incorporate a cab like the honda element in the design, but id imagine it would have added to the cost. And from what ive seen so far one of the selling points of this truck will be price.

You can see the RH B pillar in this picture: http://blogs.cars.com/.a/6a00d83451b3c669e20115713c1e9d970c-800wi

With a 2-liter diesel, it isn't going to set the world on fire towing.

That's a fact!
