Default 2008 RAM body style change?

Anyone have a clue if the 2008 will have a new body style?

I have a 2004 now and am considering getting a new one.

Thanks for any info

In late 2008 when the 2009 models come out, yes a major redesign is supposed to happen. I wouldn't expect much change from the 07's to the 08's though. I recommend waiting to see what the 09's look like and have for power if you can wait that long.

They will probably offer a 6.1l hemi as an option.

actually I think it may be a new generation hemi with variable valve timing. Probably around 5.9 L if they can't get the power out of the VVT alone.

This has been posted before, here is a link. No new changes to the body that I can see. Same ugly 2007 brake lights, same cab design, only engine changes.
