Ford F150 is going Powerstroke Diesel
It's going to be a V6, like the one in the 1500 Ram. Link

Isn't there a Diesel vs. Gas sticky?
As to the original post it is cool to see another option available. The F150 which includes a max payload package might make a nice diesel '5/8 ton' for those who are looking for it. I would think a little more weight on the front axle would help with towing stability.
My 2012 gas burner may not get the milage, but I sure like the low end torque it provides with pretty good hp to boot. I hope to run with it a long time. Had the diesel been an option in 2012 I would have taken it for a test drive.
Good luck,
Stu
