it is nice to see teh use of diesel, but it is still nto even close to being teh accepted fuel of a "performance" vehicle.
an 8100series motor in a 1500 woudl be a bad ass truck. make a manual transmission optional and i bet you could sell a ton of them.

how's the srt10 doing saleswise? |
i think in the end thats the problem, price...you could pick up a lightning when they were new for a little over 30g's...most diesels start at 30g's and work their way up to nearly 50 depending on model and options. An 8.1 would be nice but they should be realistic in pricing...one way or the other though ford is out of the game, dodge wont make that srt10 for long since they've probably sold about 3 of them so far lol...from what that article on the lightning al brought up its not enough for them to make a niche truck...though i sure like to look at them
