    Yes.
    The only part of the third gen I'm not fond of, is one of the first things I'd look to replace. A plate bumper with the otherwise stock frond end wouldn't look bad at all.

    I might be in the minority here, but I don't have any issue at all with the output of the new V6, and I love the tail end.

    What's with the radio? ...looks just like the gen2 head unit. First pic I've seen with basic audio setup in gen3.

    Rocket panels...isn't that what blew up the space shuttle? Nasa should have had mud flaps.

    Thanks for the review. You are the first person who has actually test drove one on TW to mention that you felt that it had more power than the 4.0L 2nd gen. I go in to test drive one on Monday and will report back my findings.

    How long until someone can post an acceleration video of the 2016? That would do a lot in comparing the engine to the 4.0

    Thank you for posting that link! I think the 2nd gen is one of the best looking vehicles I have every seen. When I first saw pics of the 3rd gen (SR5 grill at least) I thought it looked totally bad-ass, but so much negativity on here about the looks made me second guess myself.

    Seeing your link with people calling the 2nd gen "butt ugly" brought me back to reality. lol. These haters have no clue what looks good or not.

    Did you drive the Colorado and Canyon? For me it's not whether the 3 gen is better than the 2 gen, but is is better than it's two competitors, the GM twins.

    I want a mid size soon...thought about buying a left over 2015 2 gen, but the discounts aren't enough to justify not getting a 3 gen (haven't been able to find one to drive yet).... but then the Colorado and Canyon look good too.

    Thoughts?

    I really wish they went with this grill configuration instead.
