Default Ford Copies Ram On New Superduty

Ford has really outdone itself in copying the front end styling of the ram....

Hopefully it stays that way. The chrome grill on that thing is uglier than any truck I've ever seen. It's uglier than the Pontiac Aztec!

They should have left the exterior alone and created a new interior.

the difference between that Ford and the Dodge is that the Dodge looks good. That Ford is hideous(sp).

lots of chrome on the face, but that's about it..... the ford still retains more of a "straight edge" look than the dodge.......

I don't really see the comparison either, except that they are both trucks. The Ford definately looks like a Ford. I've seen more attractive Fords, but this one isn't far off from some of their current line-up, and could be greatly improved with some minor tweaking, though I like the look of some of the older Ford faces better.
