    Chrysler Kills Diesel Engines For Dodge Ram 1500 Pickups

    Our friends at PickupTrucks.com uncovered a motion filed by Chrysler in bankruptcy court earlier this week, that indicates the bankrupt automaker's killed its heavily-anticipated light-duty diesel engine for the half-ton Dodge Ram 1500. At least temporarily.

    Although Chrysler doesn't have a comment, Cummins director of public relations, Mark Land, claims it's not a surprise. Sure, for you. For diesel loving light-duty hauling buffs, they're simply crushed. But, the expectation is Chrysler wants to resurrect the engine plan under the new Chrysler LLC with new terms. Mmm, cheaper pricing. More over at PickupTrucks.com!
