More pics of 09 Ram
It's beginning to grow on me, but am curious to see what the thing looks like in longbed form or with training wheels. With the center console as big as it is, I hope they're not going to go all electric transfer cases for 4x's. Here's what detnews.com has:

A few more...
To me, the view from the back makes it look like a Dakota; it looks tougher from the front view Don't see a possibility of getting 3 people up front, that's for sure.

I don't like it at all. But when the 2nd gen came out I hated it. Then it grew on me. And when the 3rd gen came out I also hate it. But again, it grew on me. So I bet with time I'll like this style alot. I really like the interior though!

I love this new design, its tough, but efficient. The interior they show is amazing, I love the center armrest having a nice big Ram logo. The dual exhaust is a nice touch as well, and it will come on all the HEMI models. Can't wait to see one with the new Cummins though!
I do hope they still offer a bench seat, but they don't show any quad or standard cab models, so maybe in the lesser models they'll be less cluttered.

It might be the angle of the shots, but the bed doesn't even look like a standard 6.5' bed. It appears to be a really short bed like the f*rd 4.8' beds on their crew cab f150's.

The bed is only 5' 7", but that's for the new CC. Allpar.com has better info; it appears there will still be a QC, so at least for '09 it doesn't appear the CC wil be in the LB model. Allpar.com states that the transfer cases will only be electric. That electric transfer case seems to work pretty good on my Durango, but I don't about a bigger vehicle.... what do you guys who have that elect. xfer case on your '08 think?

I think the interior looks nice, but the exterior is absolutely hideous. I can't stand the new front end, and something about the cab just looks off to me.
However, it's probably a good thing that I don't like the new design as I've purchased five new Dodge trucks within the last seven years. So if anything, I should thank Dodge for saving me money! Maybe I should pickup a new 6.7L before it too gets beaten by the ugly stick.

I like it. Good looking truck and they finally put some better materials in the interior.
For the guys who don't like all the glitz of that fancy center console... I'm sure they'll have an ST and SLT models.
