I'm loving the Ranger Raptor, it was my #1 want for a midsize truck when I bought my first Gladiator in Nov 2019...it just wasn't available yet

A few years old with a grill from 80 years ago. ?
Meh that's like saying bmw has a grille from 80 years. Definitely has design call backs but it's changed substantially every generation.

The raptor design language hasnt really changed since 2009, it just doesnt feel very fresh anymore to me nor timeless classic design either. Just kind of boring, and the ranger is even worse since it took an already ugly truck and made it uglier imo. In general i find fords to be bland ugly cars though, and their trucks to be the least attractive of the big 5 although toyota really tried to take the crown with the last tundra.

Retired for now!
The gladiator is only a few years old, that ranger looks like 2015 wants their raptor back
The Gladiators look like an older Wrangler 4 door with a 5' bed added to it. Don't get me wrong, I like the looks of a Jeep, it is just the front end looks like a Jeep and I like that "old" styling.
I like the looks of the F150 Raptor as well in 2015 and on the new 2024 Ranger Raptor.

Whatever color paint the new raptor is cloaked in looks exceptionally good imo.

Disagree. Jeep visual design hasn't changed nearly as much as BMW in the last 80 years. Headlights, grille, body shape, fenders, etc.

I'm not actually saying that's a bad thing though.

Dude awesome Gojira mask. Saw them only once so far live, killer performance.
Thank ya. Maybe the most intense show I've ever seen was Gojira in 2019, at a venue with an 1,100 sq ft standing capacity. They played with the same intensity- and volume! - as they would at a festival. It was wild.

I think the crown for ugliest goes to the Chevy 2500.
