their is supposed to be a 1500 developed but i believe its a long weigh off. none of the cummins motors i have seen or own have been anything larger then a inline 6 and have semi trucks besides my pick ups.  
I burn more diesel and run more miles in a week the most of you people do in a month. ctds that have been used 97 3500, 98.5 3500, 98.5 3500,01 3500, 03 3500. those that are being used 06 3500, 07 3500. and yea these trucks earn their living

Dodge was going to make a 1500 diesel but it got canned in the bankruptcy deal between the "old" Chrysler and the "new" Chrysler.  It looks like Cummins has the engine built but with the financial craziness Chrysler didn't want to put it on the market and cost them money.

Give it a couple more years .... I think once Ford's new Scorpion diesel comes to market there will be a Dodge half ton diesel soon after.
