I am not trying to be a hater but what changed? Looks almost exactly like the old one. I thought this was an all new model? Put this and the old one side by side and the average person could not tell any difference.

There is a pretty big difference looking at the truck head on.
The interior will be a massive difference. GM only aimed for subtle differences on the exterior of the 2014 models but it is definitely very noticeable.

Notwithstanding the above is a rendering, let's assume for a second that the real thing looks exactly like that.

What exactly do you expect to change to the exterior of a pickup truck?

You can slightly change the front and rear fascias, headlamp assemblies, wheel arches, and small body details, and it looks like that's what they're doing.

Pretty much the same type of small evolutionary changes happened on the last redesign and all the other manufacturers' redesigns. Heck the new RAM looks identical to the old RAM but for the headlamp option.

It's not like cars where you can scrap the whole design and start from scratch. Plus these trucks are GM's/Ford's bread and butter ... no way they are risking catastrophe by gambling on a massive paradigm shift.

Imho of course.

+1. That was a fancier way than I would ever try and explain the same thing. Lol
