diesel engines
Has anyone heard that John Deere might put a diesel engine in Ford's Super Duty and Heavy Duty trucks? A few people have been asking me about it and I haven't heard anything yet. Thanks.

Ford's concept Bronco has a powershift transmission, which Deere has been using since the mid 60's. Just something to think about.

I read an article where Ford was considering putting a 6 cylinder diesel in the new F-150. They were working with International but the two could not come to terms, I think on development. Ford was talking to Cummins and John Deere.

Well, over here, a gasoline 3/4 and 1 ton trucks are pretty rare and there's plenty of diesel ones at drive-thru's. They don't shut off their engines either. (Not even the Dodges.) Must have been something else.
