Default 5.9 in early 07's???

Are they going to offer the 5.9 CTD in the early 07 m.y. Like on the truck's built before 1/1/07??
I'm looking @ Oct. to get a Mega 4x4 CTD, will the 07's be @ the dealers by then??

I'd be more worried about all the environmental stuff being shackled onto that engine. Everything I've read indicates that this engine is being introduced just to counter the lower performance and milage the EPA mandated low emmissions stuff that's now required on diesel engines in 2007. I'd either get a 2006 that is a known quanity or wait a bit for the real numbers to surface on that engine. I personally went with a 06 just to get in before this stuff hits. It's a shame to choke something like that engine down but I guess the city folks want to breath clean air and I can't fault them for that.
