Bunch of us here in the panhandle have NBS trucks and none of us are exactly racing to snag a 07 NNBS truck.

i realy like the new styling and everything i am hearing about the new trucks. it would be great if this award boosted their sales a little.

on the other hand look at their last years winner. the honda ridgeline. while it might be a good vehicle for some people it isn't a truck in my view.

I test drove a LTZ crew cab V-max and t was a NNNIIIICCCCEEEE truck.... but not 40+K worth of nice to me.... JMO though. I'll wait till 2010 or so and get a NNBS....

-like has been said, hopefully this helps them get out of their litle rut.

Motor Trend also gave it the TOTY. I read the article last night - lots of really good things to say about it.
