Chrysler needs to improve the fuel economy of it's fleet or heavy penalties will be cutting profits hence the reason for the diesel power. Now they need to sell >50% of their trucks equipped with the V6 Pentastar (a engine still with some problems) and the ED.
They'd better drop the 5.7 if they want to achieve it.
If that is the case, then Ford better drop the EcoBoost and GM better drop their V8s, as they are all within one or two MPG in the EPA ratings.
Ford will be dropping the 6.2 in the F150 for the '15 model and will be going on a diet to improve MPG, but in all seriousness Chrysler is not in good shape to meet the next CAFE milestone and with their strong growth in trucks lately puts them in worse shape to meet this goal.
It's a double sided sword! :W
