Cool looking little truck, I remember a couple of the original ones running around town when I was in High School. The concept has come full circle and will be available soon. From paper to paint. Story here: http://news.pickuptrucks.com/2009/08/sneak-peak-dodge-ram-red-xpress-truck.html#more

Oh, boy... It looks like Cody might've been a little ahead of the curve on the stacks in the bed.. :jester:

It'd be neat to test drive one, but I'd never buy one. The originals were a lot better looking.

Yeah it's really hard to recreate an original. They did a nice job though and the whole stack thing appears to be making a comeback, at least in the rural areas.

Not so much. It looks much better in the rendering (as always) but even then, I'm not sure you'd ever catch me in one of those.

I'm sure some folks won't appreciate this take on it, but...

The size of the stacks from the original vs. the size of the stacks from the new seem proportionally off. I think the newer one needs bigger stacks! :D

They need to be a bit higher and larger diameter.
