That does look like crap. Also, putting the "Ram" that big in the back of a truck is a bit of a taunt.

Dropping the Dodge name on the trucks is going to end up in future marketing books as an example of what not to do.
Maybe we need to start off small. I mean, they don't let you fuck the glumpers at Glumpees without a level 4 FuckPass, do they?

Neither can i, but I think it might be full of memory sticks.

The entire automotive marketing world has no idea what it's doing. Every single car needs to be its own brand! It's the exact opposite of what it should be.

The giant chrome letters above the wide chrome trim strip above the chrome bumper are pushin mid-'59s levels of gauche. If the next update sprouts tailfins i won't be entirely surprised.

This will resonate well with a large portion of RAM buyers.

All it needs are some chrome ram's head tail lamp covers and maybe a factory windshield decal.

Pfffffftt!!

I can't stop laughing. Still, it might look ok w/o all the chrome.

Depending on price, that could be a good deal.

Ugly, but in case it's not clear, this is just a special edition model.

When I was little I thought the ram's head tail light covers were the coolest thing ever.

No.  The giant "RAM" on the tailgate is worse.

I would say that the combination of gaudy features presents an overall appearance of awfulness.

Truck buyers generally like tacky bling and other garbage aftermarket accents. Looks like dodge is cutting out the middle man.
