I could have sworn that was an F-150 for a second...

 

From the front, the headlights and grill look even more so.

I still think FCA missed the boat on this one. Cummins actually had an agreement with Cerberus/Chrysler on this engine but when Fiat bought, owning half of VM Motori (which they now wholly own) they had access to their own 3.0. Not near the horses or torque, but better fuel economy numbers.

Still, a "Heavy Half" 1500 with that Cummins 5.0 would have been awesome...

 

 

Hate to say it but i bet it turns out to be be a pudy good truck the engine would be a good swap option like in my b2500 wait till gale banks or bullydog get a hold of it

 

Kind of bad timing for Nissan with all the bad press diesel is getting.

 

Hey I was wondering what the missing link is? And where can I get it? I'm boosting my 02 RT and I'm trying to go off of your list.

 

This thread has nothing to do with what you are asking.....

 

I have access to their own 3.0

 

Thanks for the info!
