Slightly off topic (again)......New Dakota spotted

Hello,

I was driving to work down I-96 W this morning and I seen a Dodge Dakota with a manufactures plate on it. As I passed it in the left lane, and looked in my mirror i was shocked/horrified to see the that 2005 Dakota's will have the same styling/front end as the newly release Dodge Durango's.

So if the Durango and Dakota's are switching over to this newer less appealing styling (in my opinion) how long will it be before they transfer this styling to the RAM platform?

Opinion's welcomed
