Agree that the purpose made visors looked cleaner on the trucks. Don't care as much for the more bulky appearance of the van version.
And while I also am in the column of not liking the wheel and tire package on the Ford, I have to say your Dodge looks great! Different stance completely though, and it just works better.

Overall I'm not a fan of tires sticking out of the fender wheels by much. The more they stick out, the more like a skateboard the truck looks, and the more damage is done to the paint and the vehicles driving around with you at the wrong time. Which is basically why it's illegal everywhere in the country. But often ignored by the local gendarmerie because they have better things to do.
It got pretty bad around the city here many years ago with the 4wd trucks that at various times the different cities had put the word out to their police departments to give fix-it-tickets to everyone driving around like that. We'd get swarms of people coming in looking for fender flares and mudflaps to get the ticket written off.
We could tell which cities were all over it that month because most people were coming in from one surrounding city at a time it seemed.
They tended to ignore the low-riders for the most part (after harassing them for many years before that though, I'm sure) but the pickups were getting pulled over right and left.
