Agreed. I think that the early 90's F-150 and F-250 pickups look the best.

Modern CUV/Crossover styling is horrible. Most cars are ugly now.
On the plus side, anything that isn't totally hideous stands out, lol. |

I like modern Charger aesthetics. Challengers havent really changed Id argue. 90s mustangs were not peak. 05 and newer look better than that. I tend to agree when it comes to American trucks though.

I prefer mid 60s/early 70s F150s but dislike the safety aspects (or lack of) of older vehicles compared to current ones.
I'm sure most have seen this video  1959 Chevrolet Bel Air vs. 2009 Chevrolet Malibu IIHS crash test |

My ex-FIL had one as a repo truck and i ran repo’s with for about a year. It had a hideaway boom in the bed that folded out. It was awesome, but i still had to jump out to attach the J hooks, and sometime the device to jack a tire on to caster wheels, obviously the nMe escapes me at the moment…. Miss the rush, but it is easier with the grab and go systems. |

They were nostalgic for fins and chrome. I think the 60s were peak styling, but a case can easily be made for earlier decades, too. It's hard to deny the absolute class of something like a Delahaye, Cord, or Dusenburg, or the jet-age finned 50s beasts. |
