To me it doesn't sound like GM and Chrysler are doing a very good job of keeping up with Fords technology in this particular market segment.... Although that small Dodge diesel does look impressive. GM....???
GM's 5.3L and Ram's 5.7L offer very competitive power and fuel economy to Ford's Ecoboost. They are both pushrod V8 engines with fewer moving parts, have proven very reliable, cost significantly less to produce than the Ecoboost, and retain the engine/exhaust sound many consumers desire. Different approaches to improve power and efficiency. Competition is good for us!
