Question Changes between 04.5 and 05???

From what I see so far, the trucks are a carbon copy of each other. I see talk about 610 pounds and not 600. I see nothing in print on the truck or the sales books. as for the body style, they are the same. They did add a "Power Wagon" to the line up but it only has a hemi in it. Cool factory mounted Warn winch in the front! The color green is now gone and they got rid of graphite gray and added a lighter gray. Other than that, I see no diff... Any comments???? Ive had my new 600 for 2 weeks now and have less than 500 miles on it. The overhead says 13mpg. I hope that improves. My 04 305/555 got 21mpg on the first tank! The only option diff between my 2 3 gen trucks was the first one didnt have limited slip and the new one has it. They both have 3:73's. Like I said, I hope the mileage improves. Ill be driving this one untill the 06 comes out with the bigger crew cab (I hope).
