I'd say most of that styling is function. Aerodynamics for better MPGs and a function of what people have come to expect in a new truck.
IMO lower MPGs is OK. I mean it's a truck not a prius! I'd rather have flat surfaces that are easy to attach things like oh say armor plating to.
But, for the masses today that would be what the 83 Ranger was for the masses of it's time.
