I'll buy one if it comes with the eco diesel they're putting in the Rams

I assume they mean undetermined, but given the verbage in the article about UAW negotiations, it may very well be undermined.

If it was 4 doors the bed would be cooler sized at using that wheelbase .... which wouldn't be bad at all.

If it had any bed and 4 doors it would be extremely disproportionate.

My bet is no diesel option for at least 2 yrs. The buzz over it would be enough to drive sales 2 yrs or so and then revamp a couple aesthetics and offer with the super mega diesel option. Economics dictates trickling of advancements.

A guy at my work bought a nice lifted JK. It looks the part of a trail rig, but sadly will never leave the pavement. FAIL.

They make a diesel truck for the military. I have a buddy with one at his shop right now converting it over to a somewhat flat bed personnel carrier. It is very peppy
