Sure, Dwight, I agree. And I can tell you where the "boxy" styling originated. The Hummer. Ever since that "military,utilitarian" styling came out, designers have copied it. Cause after all, what speaks more macho than "military war machine"? Additionally, I've got another styling cue that would fit right in with newer truck thinking. How about putting a big, massive steering wheel in the cab, you know, like semi trucks used to have. You'd be seen grabbing a big ole handfull of wheel, double handing it slowly in a circle, directing the monster around a corner like semi cowboys of years ago!





And yeah, you're probably right about the Hummer's influence on this ugly-ass squared-off boxy look all the trucks have now, Rich.

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
