Review: 2015 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel (03:02)

The 2015 Ram 1500 EcoDiesel sets out to redefine the half-ton pickup segment thanks to its 3.0-litre diesel powerplant that offers the towing and payload capacities of a larger motor while maintaining highway fuel economy that rivals most mid-size passenger sedans.

It’s not perfect, though, as Howard Elmer notes, and it remains to be seen how well the truck will do in the long run.
