WITH DIESEL!!! I thought they weren't coming with the cummins? Oh well. I'll post some pics of it if I can ever make it back up there. I like the styling in person much better.

I cannot imagine building anything that size (if it were still going to have significant towing capacity, AND try to sell it at this time) without a diesel. What in the world must that thing weigh?

DC's been pushing them in TV ads pretty heavily, from what I've seen. However, I still think they're grotesque and misproportioned.

Thanks for the report!

Personally, I think it's a smart move. The truck itself is a behemoth, and to go with it in a normal gas powered engine would just be stupid.

I would ONLY purchase a diesel driven truck at this point. I've owned 2 great Dodge Dakotas but I'd rather have the diesel engine gas mileage as opposed to the crappy 16-17mpg max you can get in the Dakota...

The Rams do so much better with the Cummins per MPG then the gas powered Hemi.

I agree the Cummins is the way to go, it was just my impression that they were coming out with the hemi first.
