I've always loved F150's but the current model is butt ugly. I read about them sneaking in the 2015 aluminum body into some other work sites in the USA for testing.

The new Tundra redesign is lacking in my opinion.

The new Silverado looks very nice.

Ugly is only skin deep


It's only metal, aluminum or plastic.............what counts is what you don't see.

I didn't buy my Dodge Ram for looks (OK, I admit it looks good), I purchased it for what is under the hood.....a Cummins diesel

You are right bajaguy. It's what's inside that counts. But man, if they're gonna spend years designing something, at least make it pretty! Or tough!!!!!

Skipjack Joe has it figured out! The new truck is on my list for 2016 (don't want the first production run...)

30 mpg, my bum. Maybe downhill on La Rumorosa, and certainly not rolling on 35s. I'm a little worried about the strength of it, it'll be interesting to see the crash test ratings.

Now if only they would make half ton pickups with diesel engines.
