I'll back this up. We're talking about looks here, and horrible looks at that, not functionality. If someone starts a poll about what the beefiest truck is, or what the best tow rig is, go for it. The Duramax/Allison combo is a HELL of a good heavy duty combo, but it's in the ugliest sheetmetal on the road. The new Ram is decent looking. I'm not a huge fan, but it's far from ugly. But the front suspension is crap, along with the auto transmissions.

There are a LOT of ugly rides out there. Chrysler Corp. happens to have most of the decent looking vehicles right now. [sm=smiley20.gif]

Man, talk about a guy that A. His truck is an extension of his manhood, and B. doesn't know jack about what he's talking about.
I rode along with my co-worker here who towed his 32 foot travel trailer from Washington down through Idaho, Wyoming and finally UP the Rockies to 12000 feet and the tranny and coolant temps were low and smooth the ENTIRE way. 10 hour days towing, and it purred like it wasn't even working. I'll admit we went 45mph through the last leg of the Rockies climg, but only because we were in our 8th straight hour of towing and besides we weren't trying to set any speed records. So you can EAT your overheating remarks, professor. And as far as it being a true merican truck, who gives a flying nerf bar? It's more American made than most vehicles, and last time I checked, all the manufacturers have shareholders from around the world, so many different nationalities make money off all of them.....or in Chrysler's case, many get bailed out by the government (snicker...how AMERICAN is THAT? Can you say socialism?)
Anyway, I've owned them all and have an open mind, able to make intelligent decisions devoid of emotional, deluded self righteous vitriol. The tranny problems I've had with Dodge for as long as we've owned them, the electrical fiascos with Chevy.......thanks, but I'll go with the best one I've test driven and read about and asked about. Sorry if it puts a bummer in your "red, white and blue" parade, but I never let emotionalism get in the way of a smart buy.
Remeber, the American way is competition. As I've noticed in our society lately, when we are faced with competition, we whine and moan and bad-mouth it instead of making ourselves better. I'm trying to teach my kids that instead of pissing and moaning and counting on the school system to "even the playing fiel" or "get your feelings ouuuuuuut", get out there and make yourself better!
Translation: "shaddup already!

This statement might actually make some sense if the LOAN hadn't been REPAID. It's not the first time a business has had to find external funding to remain in business.

I can see you don't think much of the domestic brands, which is OK. I certainly hope your experience with another truck turns out better for you. Good luck.

You obviously don't like Dodge dude, so why get so upset? Sometimes hearing the truth hurts, I realize, and it's only my feeling to express to you what the truth is and what we analyze every day of the week...the Nissan Titan is one piece of cheaply constructed and copied platform.

Finally, for style, I state again that the Titan is the ugliest truck on the road.

Nissan is by far the most ugly truck I have seen. But the Dodge Durango is right there with it.

I don't know about anyone else, but when Dodge Ram's new style (back in the 90's) came out, I thought it was a good looking truck......never thought anything else about the Ram's style, except Mean!![8D]

Yeah. I've always liked the looks since the semi look started. The thing that gets me the most about the titans looks is the profile of the thing. There's just something so strange about it. Fortunately, I only have to see it for a split second until it gets in the rearview mirror.
