See, this is why we will all eventually grow to like the Gen IV. It's
not that it will actually start to look better, it's just that
everything else is going to get SO UGLY that we will have no choice.

I did finally see an '05 last night at the rodeo (sponsored by Dodge).
It looks like they made some improvements, but a lot of them are not
aesthetically pleasing (to me). I hate the way the bumper sticks out so
far from the front grill, and I'm not too crazy about the tail lights.
Other than that, the biggest exterior difference is the angles that are
more square. I think I could probably get used to that. Unfortunately,
the truck wasn't open so I couldn't get a good look at the inside. I
did look at the gauge cluster, though, and that was just depressing.
