04 looks like a toy compared to the 09

I love the 04-08's, but the '09 takes tough to a whole new level. Look at these trucks sitting side by side. The 09 makes the 04 almost look like a toy. And the 97 generation - forget about it!

The actual dimensions are pretty much the same as the current truck. Just the new 09truck has a taller hood and bigger grille so it makes the front look alot bigger than the old one.

Optical illusion. It's all in the camera work, and some people fall for it every time.

The front end is bigger. The cab is 6 inches longer and it is taller.

Yeah, yeah on the numbers, but the camera work is what makes the difference.

Maybe, but it's not just the camera. It looks much bigger in person as well.

If you don't like the 2009, there is an option for you. Go to the other forum.

The front is bigger, so what. The cab on the supercrew is longer, so what. It's higher, so what. My 05 is still better to me.
