1500 diesel
I have been told that Chevy is coming out with a half ton that will have a diesel engine!! A small diesel but a diesel none the less. Is Dodge thinking of doing this?

RE: 1500 diesel
Speculation is that GM, Ford, Dodge & Toyota all plan on coming out with light duty diesels by 2010!

4.2L Cummins Turbo V6 is already in test trucks on '09 platform. It's making 190HP & 570 torque.
Ford is a 4.4L turbo V6 and GM is a 4.5L 32 valve turbo V8.
Toyota will be offering a diesel built by Isuzu, I don't know the specs on it though...
