I went to an auto show here in Louisville KY, - up here for work - , home of the F250.
I must admit, the '08 King Ranch did make me "green", one look under the hood - not so green, the cute step mod on the tail gate - green.
The leather and tow package, - green! Built in electric break controller.
Got back in my truck I LOVE MY DODGE!!!!!
They test drive the new trucks up and down the I 265 all day long - - they do get boring once you're used to the new.

Not too cool.....It more than likley means much higher prices due to not being able to spread the cost of tool and die across all models of trucks. DC produces mucho more of the 1/2 tons, so the 3/4 and 1 ton truck benefit from sharing parts with the 1/2 tons. It will be neat that they will stand out, but I bet you the price spread between the 1/2 tons and the bigger trucks will be bigger than it is now.

So no changes for 08? Are the headlights staying the same as the 06? Just wondering because I really like the look of my 06 and might be in the market next fall for an additional truck to use for all my highway driving, as long as corn prices stay like they are

I noticed they changed the headlights on the 07 Durango's. Wonder if that is the style they will have for the new Ram?

I agree, if they'll be supportingThree bodystyles (Dakota, Ram 1500, Ram HD) no less. No Doubt GM and Ford could handle that no sweat with their high volumes.
