This is one fugly truck. It looks like a Military reject, something that even the ARMY wouldn't have. If this is the replacement for the Dakota or Ram, then I'm in my last Dodge.
In the '60's Dodge aspired to have the ugliest Vehicles on the Road, and it looks like it's going back that way.
My neighbor recently bought a Jeep with a front end that looks similar to the M80 and if it was a Dog I'de shave it's but and teach it to walk backwards. It scares me stupid every morning I come out and go to work before she does in the Morning. Appauling that something that Ugly could be released on Society.
I sincerly hope this not an Idea of things to come, It's Scary.

I hope this thing doesn't scare ya'll as much as it does me.

Holy sh*t, that does look like the new liberty, I never even thought about that. My guess is there will be a design change or two, before it gets that bad, but who knows. I'm thinking it'll look more like the ram. The Gen II changed to a Gen III, 3 years after the ram design change, if they follow suite, My guess is, it'll change in 2005

"To say that each drooled over the sight of the M80 as it was rolled out of its trailer, would be an understatement. Both were floored by its rugged good looks and its overt masculinity, even in its bright yellow hue. Visually, Opher’s interpretation of the satin-stainless steel-look Dodge crosshair grille and headlamp surrounds is almost overpowering at first sight. Even though it is a compact truck, can you imagine seeing an M80 inyour rear-view mirror for the first time? "


What the hell are they smokin?????
I thing is Ugly!!!!!....Hell the Chevy Avalanche Looks better than that thing....

Put it on hold?? Sorry, I'd have to drag it out back and shoot it. If there is a word beyond fugly this thing surely defines it.
