Buddy of mine had a line for this...
"Theres an Azz for every seat." They will sell, like every year of every vehicle.
I do like the idea of the mega cab long bed...Wait, I already got one of those...
Looking right now at what may work for my wife. The short bed crew might be the answer for her. I doubt the warranty will last any longer then it did on the 07. 3 days. I might even put the [censored] and the [censored] on it and take off the [censored] right there in their parking lot.

I like it, especially the crewcab with an 8ft bed finally.

I don't care for the integrated trailer brake at all, I'd rather put my own in. Had a problem with the brake controller on my 08 GMC and had to take it in to the dealer to get it fixed. Granted it was warrantied, but I live 45 miles from town. Took em less time to figure it out and fix it than for me to drive to town.

Looks like I better find some money. Those things look awesome! Although I thought I read in one of those articles they were using urea-injection for emissions. Thats got to be a typo though, right? Anyway I think Dodge really did good on this one.

That's what they THINK Ford and GM are doing, the 6.7 isn't changing one bit.

They are just like the 06 and 07 changes, ugly yet again. Have no intention of buying a new truck for a good 10 years, and with the ones they are designing it's very easy to want to keep mine!

The only good things I will say is a bigger cab with a long box and the brake controller, and the center console design is good.

To all saying it doesn't look good, You know I think this 4th gen Ram HD looks more like the 1994-2002 trucks, (and I liked those a lot) a straight up and down grill, nice looking oval lights
and a great interior. I like the looks of it, it's great.

The C&C do get urea-injection to meet 2010 laws but the trucks stay the same (I heard however that they set up the emission stuff better though on the trucks i.e. a better filter but I don't know for sure).

Not to impressed with the exterior styling but I love the interior. Hopefully they brought back the charcoal/black interior. The dually bed looks nice, but its gonna be expensive when you loose a rear tire. I just noticed you can get a manual shift 4wd.

I like it everything about the new truck except the emission laden 6.7.

I think they went too far from the current Ram for this look! It will grow on me though.

The Mega cab is still ugly, I don't like the new black gauges.

Something weird here, the 2nd link poste above shows a big honkin cubby hole thing on the passenger side of the dash, why not just put a bigger glove box in rather than a huge hole in the dash?

The first link doesn't have the big hole..?

Looks real good IMO, like that red dually pictured, by my 07 is going to have to last me a while, only have 12K on it, would like the crew cab with a 8'bed, but my current QC will do just fine, plus the 5.9 without the emissions is what is keeping me from upgrading, my accountant says I have to kep my trucks at least 5 yrs.

It kinda looks like a dodge, ford and chevy all ran together and this is what was left. There's not much left that sticks out as dodge. I'm sure it will grow on folks. I'd like to see the 1st gen/megacab fenders on the duallys instead of the whole side of the bed sticking out.
