This truck vehicle has good size ,Needs updates!

I have like this because of previous Dakota I have owned. My new / used 2011 has a good motor suspension , more updates needed for interior accommodations . Needs help with aerodynamic styling and updated headlights fog lights . Hopefully the new model coming out will be better in suitable I?m sure at a better price than competitive brands .
