New Body Style???

Has anyone seen any spy photos or anything on a new body style Ram coming soon? I see the Dakota has changed for 08, and usually the Ram changes about a year after, and usually looks like the Dakota a little.
Im interested in what its going to look like and what they will offer. Im sure the 6.7 will remain since its only been out not even a year yet.
Any pics would help as well. Thanks- Jon

Looks kinda like a F150, IMO.
No more Mega? Hope that's not right.

I hate the idea of going like GM with a 5'3" bed with crew cab. That sucks for someone like me in the oilfield who doesn't want or like long beds.

that better not be right. i absolutely love my mega cab. DC will be heading in the wrong direction by dropping the mega, and shortening the bed. Thats plain dumb.
Coil sprung rear? What is this, a mommy operated SUV?
Come on DC, impress, not depress.

a crewcab with a 5'3 bed is the biggest mistake ive ever heard, maybe for a 1500 you can slip it by but on a heavy duty? you know the truck you know get used to haul crap around. this is just sad.

I will look but I read somewhere that the mega will be available in the 2500/3500 only. I love that mega cab...nice for when you have extra folks or cargo.

I think that until they come out it's mostly hearsay. The camo over the trucks does a pretty good job hiding what's underneath. Hard to say if that's actually a mega under there or not, could be something to prop the camo up to make it appear as a mega. I also hate the look and function of a big cab with a teeny bed. But they sell the ones they make so I guess it's not a bad choice.

Look at the pictures closely. I had thought and also heard what I thought I seen was correct and that the new look was to resemble the Charger front end attitude. Looking more like a shark. I think it will revolutionize the truck look like Dodge did in 94, and then Ford and Chevy will start to copy like they did before.
