The '07 model

Today I saw my first '07 HD. Ok, the big door emblems are a little hokey, but can easily be removed. But the tail lights! Appears DC stole them from the Durango/Dakota. Just looks awful. Guess there's going to be a run on the aftermarket for replacements.

I like 'em- and what about fuel pump stickers?!?

If you buy an '07, I'll trade you taillights (should pop right in if the bed sheetmetal hasn't changed, which it hasn't, right?). I happen to like them and the badges.

So...what about those stickers at the fuel pump??? These '07 DO NOT require ULSD!

I recall you guys saying the exact same thing about the 2006 badges and headlights (this time it's taillights). Now you love 'em. Just chill...the new look will grow on you.

I fully agree,beside that you have to realize that Dodge probably feels that they have to change something. If they didn't change anything at all I sure that people would be complaining about that. And with this truck being a successfull seller they probably want to be conservative in what they do.

Your right, The 07.5's will use ULSD not the early 07's.

The 6.7 is available in the 3500 cab/chassis model but wont be in the rest of the trucks till later. Most likely January 1, 2007, as dodge likes their mid year changes.

I personally really like the new badges on the door. But I would like to see the HEAVY DUTY emblem on the tailgate. That would be my first investment. I don't think the tail lights look that bad either. I will have to see in person though

I'm not a huge fan of the new badges or the new front bumper!
