It will be really interesting to see these guys who have all cried "no more HP wars- we want better mileage" switch to a Nissan. :) Let's face it- with the tow ratings of modern 1/2 ton trucks many folks don't need a 3/4 or 1-ton. They bought the bigger trucks anyhow for the diesel- that is about to change big time.
The people who should be most concerned are the guys at Ford- The F150 is their bread and butter- they need a diesel! My guess- in 5 years 90% of new 1/2 ton trucks will be diesels. How else does Detroit meet Cafe standards...? y.
hybrid electrics maybe
Unless the cost of fuel drops substantialy,
within 10 years most vehicles will be electric or hybrid electric..
