I find that very interesting. How many owners will go over to Toyota or Nissan I wonder?

 

Light duty trucks also has the 1500's in the relm of things. and I have a TDR article from last year where Cummins was testing a 4.6L V6 and a 5.6L V8 that both made rather respectable numbers and fit very well between the frame rails. I would go as far as to say a small 4 banger could be introduced into the dakota, however since DC also owns Mercedes and they are manufacturers of Diesel engines I wouldnt put it past DC to drop some small displacement engines into the ram or dakota, and this agreement with Cummins does involve nissan, toyota, honda, or whom ever else.

 

Our light-duty diesel days are coming... just not fast enough damnit!

 

For one, I love the fact that Cummins is from my home state!

Honestly, this has been a long time coming, and I think its a very smart move. Like Drew stated, its a plus for anyone who gets involved, as they'll sell more trucks because of the sheer power and better gas mileage of the diesel motor. I personally would probably go back to a Dakota or Toyota X-Runner with a turbo diesel in it....

 

I've been tossing around the idea of repowering my little yoda with a 4at, 120hp max, but the torque is insane[8D]

 

The Ask Dr Z commericas have been saying that the commander will be getting a Desiel next year.

 

AS A FORMER NISSAN TITAN OWNER I KNEW A DIESEL WAS COMMING , BUT A TITAN W/A CUMMING OMG. ILL BUY ONE

 

I work for a utility company which is starting purchase CTD's for our fleet. Our fleet coordinator told me that it doesn't matter who makes it, he will buy from whoever has the Cummins
