[QUOTE="Idoitall, post: 17631, member: 836"] Diesel is not on the way out. In fact, they will become more common in the U.S. Why do think the big flip on diesel pricing took place a year or so ago? GM will have a new 4.5L Duramax turbo charged diesel in late 2009 for the pickups, some SUV's, etc. At 310 HP and 520 ft. lb. torque, it will be a hit. They are targeting a 25% increase in fuel economy vs. the current gas models in these vehicles. The down side will be the $6000 option price. With the price of diesel and that price increase, the calculator will be slow to slow a cost recap to break even. But what this will provide is a very strong tow vehicle for those who need one, but just can't justify a heavier truck. [/QUOTE]
