2009 Dodge Ram Revealed?



I'm not sure how I feel about the looks. Kind of ugly in this picture, but it definitely resembles the current F150 which I love.

Just like every other body style change dodge has made im not to crazy about it at first. But Im sure it will grow onto me as time goes on as all the other style changes did as well!

I think it looks good, at least it still has the crossbar.

It also looks to have the rear coil suspension setup that Dodge pioneered.

I dunno, not really feeling that look. To blended together and its starting to look like everything else. Maybe the other versions will look better, but that looks just like a f-150 to me.

I dig it (especially the headlights)!

Looks like I know what I will finally be buying around this time next year. I have been waiting for the new Dodge before I bought anything else and it looks like the wait will be worth it in my opinion.

Not impressed in the least. Looks like they put a Dakota grill on a Furd truck.

Looks like B.E.R.T. is safe from being traded for another year or so ....

From this angle it looks like dodge FINALLY has a real crew cab. I like the looks, which is rare for me to like something right away...it has to grow like yall said.

Reminds me too much of the fugly Tundra. But I do like the the aggressiveness they tried to blend into the front.

I'm not so sure the HD line will be different, Dodge has never really done anything like GM or Ford, by making a half ton with one look, and an HD line with a much different look. Ford has the biggest difference, while the GM's aren't quite to far apart. I bet the Ram 2500/3500 won't look to much different aside from stance.

I've got to say I'm digging this new body style. To me it still has some resemblence to the 3rd gen, but like mentioned earlier it has a little more agression built into the frontend. I'm still debating on the fender flares though... I would like to see how it looks without them. It would look killer with a 35" tire underneath!

On edit: I think I would like to see a little more contour built into the box sides, but I'd have to see a rear view to know for sure

Edit #2: Upon closer inspection, it looks to me like there is some sort of stoarage option inside the bedside. If you go to allpar.com they have a larger picture of it and you can see some vertical lines above the wheel well. Anybody else seeing this?
