carmagazine in the UK did a review of the 08 WK, and boy, did they rip it a new one :mad: . If you ask me, the interior is ugly! The MyGig just looks out of place in the one close up photo (page 6) :confused:

Still waiting on SRT interior photos.

Like I said before, they rounded the front bumper too much - it kills the aggressive look. I'm really looking forward to the big 6.4L in 09. If cerebrus doenst screw up Chrylser anymore than that truck will be a beast. All american, no b.s. electronic restrictions made up by Benz - all muscle. Benz was using chrylser for its benefit anyway. Remember the dodge sprinter vans ? They got really popular among contractros and poof before you know it they turned into a full blown mercedes model. Wondery why ? so mercedes can throw in some extras and sell it for 1/3 more. Good riddance.

I agree with the over rounding.
It looks more like the previous generation which isn't as mean looking.

I don't think the non-SRT GC's ever looked mean. I actually think the nose on the non-SRT 08 in that link looks better and lower with less bumper protrusion (one thing I don't like on the current non-SRT GC).

fairly one-sided article. Too bad too. I think the new models have lots of new "goodies". I have played with the MyGig and I liked it. On the test drives it seemed like they had some prior convictions to going against the rig. Punks.

I am so glad I waited. Finally a decent interior. I hate the fact there were no color options for the srt-8 and that everything inside looks like identical. So it looks like for 08 that will be changed. Someone here mentioned 6.4L for 09'. Is there any truth to this or is it just speculation..?

I'd imagine there could be some slight differences between our version and the UK version... but still great to see something. Thanks for posting it.

Is it just me or is there a vague resemblance to the SRT front facia?(closer than the previous reg GC).
Razor, wasn't the Dodge Sprinter actually just a Mercedes w/a Dodge front clip?

I'm wondering if some of the new pieces are direct replacements...allowing for us to order the ones we want and just "plug and play"...

Guess I can find out in a few months...
