Dodge made it and Ford and Chevy have now copied it

i sincerely believe that when dodge came out wiht the new body in 1994 they were by far the best looking truck...and in 1999 ford gave the front end very VERY similar curves ...but i have not noticed any similarities between the gm trucks and any other trucks..gmc's have been better looking than the chev front end since like 2000...and now i think the chev front end looks terrific ...just my opinion....dodge needs to go back to the 1994 design and leave it alone

Yeah, ain't that weird? I was parked next to a Chevy 2500 crew cab long bed with my truck the other day (see sig) and the Chevy was only a foot and a half or so longer than mine.

Go back to the 1940s and early to mid-1950s and all the makes had the same rounded fenders that are coming back today. I remember an old Dodge a buddy had that the left and right sides of the hood lifted up separately. It didn't give the best access to the engine compartment.

If you can't design it yourself, copy someone else.

My 1970 Chevy 3/4 ton had to drop down fenders. What goes around comes around again, and again, and again, and.............
