Too bad those rear wheel wells will rust through if you drive through a puddle.

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

Eventually the grill will completely take over the truck from bumper-to-bumper.

Your government thinks we need flat front ends to better run over pedestrians. One of the many examples of government overreach

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 think there are several modern trucks that are nice looking. But yeah, squarebodies and OBS trucks are awesome.

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. |

My soon to be pillaged 96 GMC Suburban was pretty nice for its day. The refresh in 2001 is peak Suburban.
Modern cars just straight got hit with the ugly dumbass stick. |

View Quote In that era, people were saying the same things. 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. |

With new trucks everything is ugly as shit with Dodge being the least offensive. All interiors looks like poo. Everything is just over designed.

The 69-72 Chevy pickup was peak styling for pickups. Short bed 4WD, specifically.
