Kinda neat how they keep it looking like they're still related.

When they started making all the trucks look like that, I hated it.

No reason for all the trucks to look like the avalanche.

I liked the look also. I think they are the only tough looking model years since our square bodies.

:D Have you been drinking, Vile?  Those new Furd Super Dooties are UUUUUUUUGLY.  I think the current Ram and Silverado/Sierra are the handsomest half-tons on the market today.  I never liked the looks of the GM trucks from '99-'06.

I dont like the angles of the new Rams. The avalanche had way too much plastic on it too

Well not until I'm replying now but the stacked lights, the mirrors, the tall bed skin with large arches cmon... You don't think GM was trying to compete with Ford Here? The new GMC's look better than the Chev's
