Are 1/2-Ton Diesels Worth the Price?
When Ram announced this past February they will be the first manufacturer to offer a diesel in post-2000 ½-ton pickups, I smiled with anticipation. The 2014 Ram 1500 Fiat V-6 diesel finally opens the door that all of the Big Three had planned on opening back in 2010. At that time, as we all know, the economy tanked and vehicle sales, as well as plans for 1/2-ton diesels, took the hit.
May 1, 2013
Wishful Thinking: 4.5L Duramax GM’s Duramax 72-degree 4500, which is said to have developed 310hp and 520 lb-ft of torque, was projected to be available as a 1/2-ton diesel option in 2010 trucks. The idea was scrapped when the economy tanked. But Chevy/GMC lovers can still dream. The V-8 diesel engine was said to deliver 25 percent better mpg than the gas small-block under normal driving and a 40 – 70 percent increase in fuel economy when towing/hauling.

Batteries Included
How today’s battery-operated irrigation controllers are saving the day at sites with and without access to AC power. They’re more common than you may think. We see them in operation on sites like street medians, landscaped roadsides and construction sites without easy access to electrical power, as well as within public landscapes where vandalism is a concern. And, for the most part, we don’t give them a second thought.
