Tundra with a Cummins?

Looks like Toyota may be considering a diesel option also.

    Chevy guys don't seem to have a problem with an Isuzu engine, they just call it a Duramax :B
    I kid...I kid...
  • They are not doing very good with what they have. How expensive will it be to add the diesel option to a low sales product?
  • I would like more payload in a Tundra. Will the cummins take away from the payload?

    The Cummins talk is probably a publicity stunt to counter Fred and the boys. But like a said in the Nissan/Cummins thread, the V6 Cummins is still up for grabs.
