Seems as though the #1 thing that they're doing with this truck is making the grill larger. Much larger.

I always thought that the columbias/centurys grills were too small. Especially with EGR engines.

I'll test drive one when they come out, I'm very interested in the rack + pinion steering....

two things that bug me the most are

1. Lack of a visor. Not sure why.. just looks odd with out one.

2. Headlights...

Look at the gap below the headlights... That looks hideous.
