Default 1500 RAM DIESEL ?????????

Just wondering if anybody had any insight on the proposed Ram 1500 Diesel? I say proposed because i can't seem to find any info on it. Is it true? or just wishful thinking?

Motor Trend had something on it not to long ago. It's suppose to be an 8 cylinder diesel with 300 horsepower and 400+ pounds of torque

Do you think it will be wise to get the first production run?

It's always risky getting a motor when it is first released, but I would think it would be less of a risk given Cummin's amazing reputation and warranty.
