Not trying to bash it and I don't like to make statements until I do my own research about items before I make myself look like an ass lol.
I've just been reading blogs about it and following a few owners of the eco's postings but a lot of people have been giving negative feed back on the power... But then again some people were probably thinking they were going to get the power of a Cummins motor and didn't really understand the reason for the 1500 eco release.
I'm hoping I get to test drive one when they arrive on some dealer lots so I can at least have the chance to try it out. I do think it is an awesome offer from RAM to get a 1500 diesel. But like stated with diesel fuel at a super high I wasn't considering it due to the wide timeline of making money back for better fuel economy to offset the price of the actual truck.
