Yep, besides the obvious front fascia (pig nose) differences, I noticed at first that the front bumper looks really small. That's because the top half is painted, while the bottom remains that same ol' plastic chrome color. The pig nose is mighty big, but it does kinda make the truck look mighty. I like the new fender styles, and the lights are nice, although cut funny on the bottom half. Power choices are a bit different this year, and the big difference in the 4x4 connection...da-da-dummm...independent front suspension. Oy. The way it's all set up looks like a bit of a mess, but I guess its supposed to work good. (ask MoparNorm) I think that jacking one up will be a ton more expensive now, not to mention more difficult.

Again, one of the major flaws that I see is that the 4x4 versions don't look like a 4x4 and the 4x2 looks like it's been slammed. The stance just isn't quite big enough looking for me. I like something that comes from the factory as a 4x4, and damn well looks like it. Before, there was too much air between the rear tire and the fender wells. Now, there's less room (more equal in front and rear), but it looks more like a stupid Excur-shun with big body and tiny little wheels. It is like if I had size 8 feet, and I'm 6'4" tall (size 14 by the way). It would just look stupid. They need to make 'em beefy, if they want them to be beefy.

Oh, well. Atleast that's how I see it.

Have a good one y'all!!
