I see the 3rd one i have seen in this area yesterday but this time it was from the front and i still think it looks wimpy and sad. Reminds me of my mate who got with this girl and in his eyes she was stunning but everyone else thought she was a pig lol. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder for sure but i cant see how people think the fonefifty is ugly. I know there's 4-5 people on the forum who dont like it but as a whole it is the best looking truck on the market. It's like saying carmen electra is ugly even though 99% of people think she is fit. Someone is always going to think she is ugly. But i guess that one reason the fonefifty has been such a good seller is because it always looks better than the brands trucks.

Funny huh?

You mainlanders got to wake up to this today.

It started around 9:00 PM for me last night.

It took a while to figure out that it might be an April fools prank.

Like most, I was thinking "WTF happened". Then like most, put two and two together.

Like others, I must disagree and also admit it's all in the eye of the beholder.

I've seen more '09 150's on the road than '09 Rams. I'm not talking 2-1 or anything of that nature, we're talking about 2 '09 Rams in total I've seen on the road (not on the lot) and roughly 15-20 '09 150's. Of course we are in Ford country here in CO.

The Rams do look nice from the front, but the bed from the side and back of the truck does not look properly proportioned to the rest of the truck.

Admit I'm not the biggest fan of the huge chrome grille on the 150, but like the rest of the truck, or like it with the painted or black grille.
