Looks like dodge is also swtiching to that Chevy style front end.

 

I like how they call the diesel a V8

 

Can't tell anything from those pictures... there are inserts under the camoflauge to disguise the true body lines.

They aren't completely incorrect in calling the new diesel a V8, they just got the displacement wrong... there is a 5.6L Cummins V8 coming for the 1500...

 

Graphite, your still over the top on displacement, but I can't say by how much. At this point we're not even sure it will be a V-8, a V-6 is more likely.

 

Cummins V-8 6.7??? In a 1500???

 

Ya i posted a comment about the V8 snafu.

 

The 1500 is for sure a V-8, 5.6L The V-6 that is coming is for the Durango/Dakota.

 

Notice how the headlights are dropped kinda like the new Fords.

Oh the humanity! What the heck are they thinking?

 

2005 Govt. Report

By all means... if you have more info, do tell. All of the other published(web) information has stated year after year that the two engines under development have been a 4.2L V6 and a 5.6L V8...

 

stick with the 07 and 08's I think this new front end design might be a disappointment like the new Dakota body style was.

ew.

 

Guy's! The sky is not falling yet. Chill out. As a previous poster all ready said they put all kinds of pading and junk under the covers as to disguise what is really under there. Besides, don't put much faith in that short little article, they called our 6.7 Cummins a V8 after all.

 

Hey Luke they are still working on the v6 diesel for the 1500s right?

 

It's a small V8, not a 6.

 

oh gotcha!
