the cummins engine is too tall and too long to fit in a standard passenger van or the cargo equivalent. it certainly wont fit in the so called mini van. however since dodge now makes a sprinter under both dodge and freightliner badges you can get a diesel a mercedes at that which gets very good mpg figures according to all ive read. -- max there are four boxes to be used in defense of liberty soap ballot jury and ammo. please use in that order. -ed howdershelt author why doesnt dodge put their diesel engine in the van. if they would do this id buy a new van tomorrow .

written by a bitter right wing black man who happens to be discusted with his own race and the terms he was using makes him a racist and the whole article nothing more than bitter bullshit. the fact that you think it is correct or a good read as you put it doesnt say to much for you either. i happen to be from near that area and i know what he is talking about. telling the facts does not make one racist only your social conditioning is. do you hang out in that area if not then you really dont have a clue. while im sure that there are a few people that fit his description saying that they all do because they are black is simply a racist comment no matter how you try and spin it. but of course i forgot no white people especially in the south mistreat or put down the blacks do they. i guess the kkk is a new england thing lol! yeah it is a new england thing. if i recall correctly in the 60s when the us supreme court rules for busing black students into white schools i believe it was the white northerners who did the rioting over the decision not the white south. perhaps you should do a little research on the subject before blabbing on about it and that was 40 years ago. a lot changes in 40 years. the bussing was not just blacks it was busing inner city kids into the subs school systems. many of the people in the subs moved there to get their kids away from the influences of the inner cities and sacrificed a lot to get there and i dont blame them for getting pissed when after doing what they felt they needed to do to protect their children some assholes then decided to buss the very influences they tried to get away from right back where they were. i grew up in the north at that time where you there not really accurate. the federal court ordered busing was kids from the black section of boston being bused into a white section and visa versa. pissed everybody off. that deal ended a few years ago.the deal to the suburbs is a few boston inner city kids are bused to another city under a agreement with whatever the city is no kids from that city get reversed bused to the inner city of boston. this program continues today. to anticipate your question i was and continue to be there. but not for much longer!!!! roy . 222 316511 1145557281.813528.116180@i40g2000cwc.googlegroups.com jph wrote .bob wrote stillrolling wrote why doesnt dodge put their diesel engine in the van. if they would do this id buy a new van tomorrow dodge no longer produces a full size van. ford and chevy are your only choices and i think but could be wrong that they are available with a diesel. dodge does sell a full sized diesel van. its called the dodge sprinter. basically an imported mercedes benz with a 5 cyl turbo diesel. its available in 3 different lengths and 2 different heights. starts at $29380 usd. john the problem with the sprinter is that if you do not want one in white with strange options you have to wait 6 months to get it. even worse you would be ordering a discontinued leftover because the sprinter was redesigned and the factories in germany only produce the redesigned model which will not be here until winter. so if you want a leftover that sat on a lot in europe and then was broken down shipped and reassembled then order a sprinter now. or wait 8 months to get the new one ordered. .. .
