There are some nice features to the new truck. I like the in bed storage and the storage below the seats. That interior looks nice, but doesn't a ford look kinda like that on the inside?

It will be interesting to see how close the 2500/3500 follows. I've always like the way that the current 2500/3500 looks beefier with the same styling as the 1500. That high center console on the interior would drive me nuts.

Here's a bunch more picts

It sure looks like Dodge has been listening to what people have been saying. People have complained about the interiors for years, and I think the average buyer makes their decision based on what they see/feel when sitting in the driver's seat.
If they can keep the price less than Ferd or GM, I think they'll have a hit.

Where is the stick on a manual or manual trannies gone forever? I like my center console on the 01 3500 where its down low, dont bother me any. I just want a manual that I shift, not the truck with a click of the button. Clutch/Brake/Throttle Thats how it is in a semi thats how I want it in my pickups

Looks like a damn Dakota on steroids!! It would deffinatly have to grow on me.
Maybe they will follow Chevy and Ford and have a completely different body style for the HD 2500/3500's That would be sweet to see that, then we can de-badge and not have to answer those stupid questions any more like "Is that a Half ton truck" , to which I answer, "When is the last time you saw a 6" tip on a 1500"?

What bothers me too is that it looks more like a Lexus on the inside than a truck. I'm just not into all that electronic crap in my truck. I want function and something that I can dirty inside without having to worry about it.
