Black plastic must go. Interior isn't bad compared to other generations.

Where do you see black plastic? If you are talking about the fender flares and the bumper.....THEY ARE W-O-R-K TRUCKS; THEY AREN'T SUPPOSED TO BE EVERYDAY LUXURY TRUCKS!!!!

Work trucks don't need to look ugly, you're representing your business with that truck. Where do you get paint=luxury?

Most of the Chevy and Ford work trucks have plastic molding; whats the difference?

You're comparing Dodge to Ford and Chevy. Which should be the obvious choice with higher standards?

This isnt done for style. Those black plastic moldings have a purpose...They help keep the rocks and debris from damaging the paint. If it breaks its cheaper to fix than to have to repair bumper or fender.
