You are in the Ford F-Series Forum. Your Host is kcram
Has anybody heard if this is true or not? I work for Ford here in Ontario Canada, and it was leaked out in one of our meeetings that this was in the work's. If it is, I hope it's not as ugly as the 07' Superduty.

I keep waiting for Ford or one of the other automakers to grab a clue and enter a clean, powerful, fuel-efficient 1/2 ton pickup into the American market. The engines are there (all over the rest of the planet). The fuel is there (diesel and bio-diesel are readily available, and by most accounts will get cheaper and more plentiful as the years wear-on). So what gives? I like gasoline as much as anybody, and I'm not some tree-hugging nut. However, with the ranting over foreign oil dependence and the global dominating seed-oil production capacity of the U.S., I don't see why we're not moving in that direction faster. I don't want or need a 3/4 ton truck (neither do alot of folks), and don't want to pay 3/4 ton prices for a diesel truck. So I ask all of you.....Where are the new 1/2 ton diesels? I love the new F-150's, so that's why my query wound up here. Thanks in advance for responding.

Low sulfur diesel fuel in the United States will be mandatory in mid-2006. Europe made low sulfur mandatory in 2003 and half the new cars sold there are diesel. Can't Ford take this as a omen for things to come? I love the new F-150. But I can't get myself to get a truck that gets 14mpg while it could get 28mpg with a diesel. |

They're coming out with a 6-cylinder diesel in the 150 near the end of 2007 from what I've heard - Patience my man, patience!!
