diesel power mag

Got the new diesel power mag. This is the 3rd issue and I have enjoyed each of them. They are a little Ford and Banks heavy, but good reading nonetheless.

But.............. You would think a "Diesel" mag would know the difference between a diesel and a hemi. On page 117 there is the new 05 Ram HD, they talk about the CTD, the power, towing performance of the diesel, and what is in the 2 page main pic?????? A blue single cab ram with a hemi badge on the fender. C'mon, cant even get the right truck in the photo?

I will continue to read and buy the mag even though they overlooked this one, but it makes me laugh.

If his truck dies

i wonder if he will think that the 6.0 is the greatest thing in the world too, Both the previous issues have been rather biased... but u r right..

The magazine is awesome, but someone needs to send them the memo. that Ford, Dodge, and Chevrolet are not the only brands on earth with diesel power under the hood.

I appreciate the offer, but right now i think ill wait and see if i can find one somewhere. I saw one at advance auto parts a while back,and havent looked there for the newest ones yet. I think i can find one, just might have to do some looking. Thanks though!

Cummins in conjuction with Dodge has in the recent past worked on a V-6(for the Durango) and a V-8(for the 1500)...

I have two articles saved on my home computer that talk about those engines.

i wouldn't think so cause mercedes has its own diesel line of engines. but would be a great edition to the line-up.

on anther note issue#2 was nothing but ford i wasn't impressed, looks liek issue#3 will be nothing but banks, i guess he's got $$$ cause he's everywhere diesel is. i guess the more advertising the more $$$
