The 3.0 ecodeisel was a joint development of Fiat (Ram) and Chevy so Chevy can use same or similar in theirs.

I had a dodge charger for commuting, a 8.1 L 3/4 ton suburban for towing, and a jeep for hunting and now do it all with this Ram 1500 ecodeisel.  In 2019 models towing jumps to more capacity than 3/4 ton suburban.

That's not entirely true. GM was partnered with an Italian company to build an engine until GM went bankrupt. When they did, Fiat bought the company that was building that engine.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield
