Attention: TDR Forum Junkies [RAW]<i><b>A Small Cummins? Yes, I know ours is a Ram/Cummins 2500 - 5500 website (soon to be 1500 VM Motari too?), but I thought you would find this press release from Cummins about their 2.8-liter engine in a current Nissan small-size pickup, the Frontier. (Remember, it is the Titan that will receive the Cummins 5.0-liter engine some time in 2015.) Enjoy the press release information. Check out http://www.diseno-art.com/ for more photographs. If you would like to see more, www.pickuptrucks.com has a video about this concept vehicle.

<p class="MsoNormal">CHICAGO (Feb. 6, 2014) - Cummins Inc. (NYSE: CMI) and Nissan
(NSANY) unveiled a technical study called the Nissan Frontier Diesel Runner -
Powered by Cummins™ at the Chicago Auto Show. The heart of this vehicle is a
concept 2.8L turbo diesel engine - developed at the Cummins Technical Center in
Columbus, Ind. - that produces approximately 200 hp and over 350 lb-ft of
torque. This concept 2.8L has been matched with a Nissan Frontier Desert Runner
4x2 in a project to evaluate the viability of this package for North America.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Cummins has been powering pickup trucks around the world for
over 25 years, with engines including the B3.9, 5.9 and 6.7-liter Turbo
Diesels. The 5.0L V8 Turbo Diesel for the next-generation Nissan Titan and the
ISF2.8, used in markets outside the United States, are the latest production
engines to power the pickup truck market.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The custom Nissan Frontier Diesel Runner - Powered by

<p class="MsoNormal">"These trucks really highlight modern clean-diesel
engine characteristics, with the durability and power that Cummins customers
have come to depend on," said Dave Crompton, Cummins Vice President and
General Manager - Engine Business. "The Nissan Frontier is a great
platform to demonstrate the potential of a Cummins-powered compact pickup for
the U.S. market, and this project will help to gauge market reaction and
evaluate future plans."</p>
<p class="MsoNormal">In addition to these 2.8L-powered concept trucks and the new
5.0L V8 Turbo Diesel for the next-generation Titan, Cummins, Johnson Matthey
and Nissan have partnered on the U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) ATLAS research
project. The cost-shared research program is instrumental in developing new
diesel engine and emissions-control technology to meet future emissions
regulations and demanding fuel-economy requirements while delivering Cummins
performance and durability.</p><p class="MsoNormal"><br/></p><p class="MsoNormal"><i>Photos presented by Diseno-art.com. For more photos, check out: http://www.diseno-art.com/</i><br/></p>[/RAW]
