<strong> The C3 is to commemorate the third time in all of GM history that the truck has been completely redesinged. Get it, third time for the C1500, C3. The truck has the stronger 4L65E and the high output 6.0 rated at 325HP. The C3 was only made for one year, after that its name was changed to Seirra Denalli and it was givin 4WS. The C3 has every option you can get. </strong></font><hr /></blockquote><font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Technically GM reserves the "high output" part for the escalade and silverado SS LQ9 (10:1 compression) motors with the 345 HP ratings. The C3 has the same LQ4 (9.4:1 compression) motor found in the trucks and suvs. Nevertheless, it is sweet. Besides the upgraded motor, trans and AWD, it also has the upgraded braking system from the 3/4 ton trucks.

I actually bought one, then backed out and decided to keep the ol Z71.

I drove one for about a week and it was the best handling (normal) truck I have ever driven. Just to warn you with the simi-High Output 6.0 and the AWD the gas millage SUCKS
