After looking at the Longhorn, and the Limited . I think just the Laramie got it just right ,not all that bling
Agreed. That's why I picked the Laramie. The gaudy cowboy theme isn't for me.

Agreed. I'll stick with my "basic" Laramie. They can keep the over priced, useless and downright ugly, add ons. Why would anyone pay extra for that? The price of these trucks is bad enough as it is.

I like the grille

You know there will be an aftermarket lock released to prevent "classic" grills from being stolen once this new design becomes pervasive. Most likely the redesign in a few years will go back to older styled grill and they will call it the "new look" hoping people's memories are short.

This just in, RAM dealers reporting a shortage in prior to 2016 grilles.

I can see that happening. This grill is just a bit gaudy for me. Why not some simple mesh, why does the ram need huge nostrils?

They won't be selling me any trucks with those changes. I'm happy with my Tradesman and black grill.

One thing I take from these last two trim packages from RAM (Rebel and this one) is that the next gen Ram may dump the crosshairs grill, which would be a disappointment imo.

Yes it would be a huge dissapointment.

Those new grills look like something you order out of Bling magazine. Lol

One thing I take from these last two trim packages from RAM (Rebel and this one) is that the next gen Ram may dump the crosshairs grill, which would be a disappointment imo.

I can't help but think of Blazing Saddles ever time I see a certain brand of truck and its gaudy cowboy theme.

They were thinking $$$$$ and EGO.
