What was Ram thinking

No speculation. This model is a go. Most to the individuals that expressed they do not like the design are Ram people. So the question is why take it so personal if there is not a 100% consensus on your preferred brands design. I know I am not a fan of every design to come out from my preferred brand.

I'm with you. I am a Ram guy and I do not like the new design. I do not understand why the OEM of any of the brands feel they have to advertise the brands in such big ways. People that are brand loyal don't need to have the names look like billboards across the tailgates. The people that don't care which brand they drive don't pay attention to the names on them no matter how big they are posted.

I guess what makes it look so bad to me is they have not change the truck itself any, just added a different grill and tailgate. If they had done a big redesign on the body and everything it may not have been as bad.

IDK, maybe it will grow on me. I do know that the new GM design was a home run. I have liked it since the first one I saw. Ford is the same as Ram to me. They changed the grill, tailgate and hood and pretty much left the rest the same except the F150. It is a home run too. Very nice looking truck.
