ORIGINAL: ripto

Best looking trucks are the older ones, I think they all try to make things look all high tech and fancy while the actual "truck" does not look like it should any more. My idea of a truck is a mean looking beast, and none of those pictures live up to it. 2nd gen ram, older fords, older chevy's (that have Chevrolet written on the tailgate) are all great looking trucks. I'm not even into the 3rd gen rams.
I am with you on that one, I love the older trucks. They look like a truck. I really think dodge should go back to that but make a beefy model, not a fast one like the SRT-10 make a hardcore one. Thats built to go trailing and what not.

I agree. I don't really care for the 3rd gen rams either. All makes are starting to look too much alike. Kind of like all the bubble cars of the early 90's did.

Just read the article. Even without pictures, I think I'll skip buying a Gen 3 and wait for the Gen 4's.

I like the idea of a V8 Diesel in the 1500's!

How are you supposed to put anything into the bed of the rampage? The top of the bed looks to be like 5 feet off the ground, and it also strikingly resembles the cadalac truck (oxymoron?), ridgeline, and avalanche...
