Just to kick off the new section, thought I'd post up a review.

I have just under 1000 miles on mine. I'm in life with it. On the interstate I'm getting around 30 mpg.

 

I actually wanted one, sold my beloved "Big Red" Hemi, but three different dealers wouldn't drop a dime off sticker, all the while offering $8000 off Hemi 4x4s. I ended up buying a 2500 CTD stickered for $12,000 more than the Eco Diesel for only $3500 over the best deal I could get for an Eco...

 

I agree that dealers are treating these as if they are gold. I like the idea behind having one (although if you take the cost per mile in gas it is actually more economical to get the Hemi) I refuse to give in at this point. When the price is right, I may buy one then if I have not moved to the Hemi already.

 

I have 20,000km on mine now and it's been flawless. Had to get rid of those stock tires tho. worst traction in the wet.

It's been 9 months and I have not seen any other reg cab ecodiesel in ontario. I've seen a handful of quads but no 8ft box.

I'm disappointed in the tailgate though. The plastic trim on it broke the very first time I went to the dump with a load. If anyone knows who makes a checkerplate aluminum replacement part .. I'd be grateful.

Gas mileage is amazing. Fill up once every 2 weeks. 900-1100 km per tank. I have so much more money in my pockets these days. (gas savings)
