Styling is subjective, but they all look better than the oddly shaped wheel arches of the previous generation Chevy Colorado, which was asymmetrical.
I think the Fords are good-looking trucks with the exception of all the excessive bling on the grille, but that’s a trend that’s been building for years. The needle will swing back eventually. I thought the Chevy and GMC full size were both way too square when they first came out, but it’s grown on me. More restrained on the grille, too. I give the nod to the GMC for best looking. Dodge I never consider, but I’ve seen a few that looked good. The new Nissan Titan is a good looking truck in a derivative sort of way, it’s an F150 knockoff to my eyes. Toyota’s lagging, they need to step up their game.

Yeah, I’m not a fan of those slanting Colorado fenders either although they’re not too bad on the higher end models with the fender flares and the bigger tires. I think GM nailed it with the squared off styling of the full size trucks. Looks really crisp and appropriately truck-like, with an appealing boxiness that reminds me of the late ‘70s models. They also have great interior styling and materials. I got to drive one for a few days recently and was stunned by how improved the interior is over previous models.
