This one appears to be actually coming this fall. My only concern is the price tag.
I would love to have a new crew cab 4X4 pickup and a Dodge would be ok. The diesel would be nice, if it holds up. Being new, it is a bit of a gamble.
However, I do not want to mortgage my soul to get one. Randy On 20/08/2013 8:20 AM, Curt Raymond wrote:

I see now that Dodge has plans to produce a half ton truck with a V6 diesel in September of this year. The story I read said the engine was developed by an Italian company for GM to put into a Cadillac they planned to sell in Europe prior to going broke a few years back. Now, apparently, Dodge is going to use it in a truck - and in the Grand Cherokee SUV. They claim 30 mpg in the pickup. http://www.ramtrucks.com/en/ecodiesel/ http://www.roadandtrack.com/go/news/new-cars/photos-go-news-new-cars-2014-dodge-ram-1500#slide-15 Randy _______________________________________
