Yea, but diesel motors get way better milage. My brother just bought an 05 Ram 3500 quad cab long bed with the Cummins....he averaged 22.8 mpg on the way home doing 80 mph on 295 for an hour. My Aunt's 05 Ram 1500 standard cab, long bed Hemi has gotten a best of 15.2 on the highway. Both trucks are 4x4 automatics.

The H1 Alpha only got the D-max for it's last year, every other H1 diesel sold by GM had the POS 6.5L.
