under the federal light-duty tier 2 regulation phased-in beginning 2004 vehicles of gvwr up to 10000 lbs used for personal transportation have been re-classified as medium-duty passenger vehicles hence why the srw configuration has gone from a gvw of 9900lbs. to 10200lbs. .

well according to steve no 6.7 liter for the pickups theyll continue to use the current 5.9 engine. i find that hard to believe - given the competions lead in the hp and torque wars. i guess well know for sure in 5 months or so .

id imagine they have quite a few of the 5.7 powerplants that still need to be installed. and do yoiu think that while cummins is releasing it in 07 dodge may need a year or 2 to work it into their truck line -- ------------------------------------------ laszlo almasi cool toys formerly carolina watercraft works ice angels well according to steve no 6.7 liter for the pickups theyll continue to use the current 5.9 engine. i find that hard to believe - given the competions lead in the hp and torque wars. i guess well know for sure in 5 months or so .

to be installed. and do yoiu think that while cummins is releasing it in 07 dodge may need a year or 2 to work it into their truck line i might accept that if dodge didnt already announce their new 3500 chassis cab would indeed use the 6.7l engine. why then would they keep the 5.9l in the 2500/3500 pickups it doesnt make sense. .

well its already a $5500 option. by the time the new 6.7 rolls out it will be at least $6000 and likely more. anyone know btw ads in the paper this weekend have local houston tx dodge dealers offering up to $11500 off new diesel duallys thru tuesday night 2/28. helfman dodge in particular. http//www.helfmandodge.com nathan@nospam.com writes 6.7 liters 325hp/750 ft. lbs. http//www.everytime.cummins.com/every//release73.jsp .

it actually makes perfect sense. many people buying the new diesels are doing so because of their superior mpg over their gas counterparts and more power as well. unless this new 6.7 gets as good or better mileage as the 5.9 what is the real advantage while admittedly not an expert from what im reading on here the current trucks main limitations on towing and load do not appear to be due to the engine so for the average p/u owner what is the real advantage of this bigger engine all i see is a higher cost lower mpg and a higher risk of drive train component failure all negatives to me. since the 3500 chassis version is geared toward commercial service where ford is kicking ass the added power is needed to become more competitive in towing and other commercial applications. -- if at first you dont succeed youre not cut out for skydiving to be installed. and do yoiu think that while cummins is releasing it in 07 dodge may need a year or 2 to work it into their truck line i might accept that if dodge didnt already announce their new 3500 chassis cab would indeed use the 6.7l engine. why then would they keep the 5.9l in the 2500/3500 pickups it doesnt make sense. .

good points. maybe they intend to hoover ram owners into buying a new model in several years by introducing the 6.7 down the road a ways. -- ------------------------------------------ laszlo almasi cool toys formerly carolina watercraft works ice angels to be installed. and do yoiu think that while cummins is releasing it in 07 dodge may need a year or 2 to work it into their truck line i might accept that if dodge didnt already announce their new 3500 chassis cab would indeed use the 6.7l engine. why then would they keep the 5.9l in the 2500/3500 pickups it doesnt make sense. id agree im sure they dont have such a super huge overstock of the old 5.9 isb sitting around so they couldnt introduce the new 6.7 isb with the 07 model year. -- -chris 05 ctd 99 durango .
