fiat vs Cummings diesel

It is just a matter of tuning it for a pickup truck.

Their engines in this class are very similar to the Cummins offerings.

BTW their are no longer Dodge pickup trucks. Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep and Ram are individual divisions.

You never know it could happen with the current Fiat ownership.

Remember during the Daimler days one of the Germans in a public speech said that the cummins was going to be replaced by one of their engines. Soon after Daimler went on the PR mode saying this guy mis-spoke but I'm sure it was in the planning stage or else that guy wouldn't have said it.

The Cummins was what put the Dodge trucks on the map. While the Fiat Diesel might be a great engine it would take a while to build the same trust for the motor.

Had a RAM EcoDiesel with the 3.0 Fiat diesel. It was a very good running truck, did everything they said it would do without any trouble. We went to a RAM 2500 because we are looking at get a larger fifth wheel. Otherwise we would have kept the EcoDiesel.

I seriously doubt it - it's the Cummins engine that sells the truck, not the Dodge name.

Already have the 3.0-liter EcoDiesel V-6 courtesy of VM Motori for the 1500

The 6.7L Cummins is their mainstay in HD Trucks

No G in Cummins and I really doubt it. The Cummins was a big selling feature for Dodge, Ram.
