Chevy Silverado HD Tops Ford F-Series Super Duty With Power, But Not ... - AutoGuide.com
Chevrolet has responded with some big numbers for the all-new 2011 Chevy Silverado HD . The new 6.6-liter Duramax V8 is rated at 397-hp at 3000 rpm  and 765 ft-lbs of torque at 1600 rpm.

The new Duramax Silverado HD can tow up to 20,000 lbs and has a payload rating of 6,335 lbs. The F-Series Super Duty is rated at 21,600 lbs and a payload rating of 6,520 lbs.

GM is proud to boast that fuel economy with the new engine has been increased by 11 percent (although not mpg numbers are available), with a total driving distance of 680 miles on a tank.

Two hurt in fog-related crash involving semitrailers, Jeep - Sheboygan Press
Two people were hospitalized Tuesday morning after a Jeep Cherokee was sandwiched between two semitrailers in a crash just south of Plymouth, according to the Sheboygan County Sheriff's Department.

The crash, reported about 8 a.m. at county Highway PP and Prairie Road, ruptured the diesel tanks on both semis, spilling fuel into the ditch and over a live electrical transformer box on which one semi came to rest, said Sgt. Blaine Spicer. The roadway was closed for cleanup for several hours and reopened later in the day.

Spicer said the driver of the SUV, Timothy Christensen, 45, of Plymouth, suffered serious but non-life-threatening injuries. He was taken to an area hospital, as was the driver of the rear semi, Steven Guelig, 51, of Cascade, who suffered minor leg injuries and a bruise to the head.

The driver of the front semi, Justin Simon, 27, of Fond du Lac, complained of back and neck pain but was not taken to a hospital. A dog that was riding with Christensen ran away after the crash and had not been located as of Tuesday evening.

Mission: Possible - Philippine Star
Isuzu Philippines Corporation announced the arrival of the Isuzu N-Series light-duty truck, which now features a Euro 2-compliant diesel engine, ensuring minimum impact to environment during operation.

MANILA, Philippines - Isuzu Philippines Corporation (IPC) has gone through various marketing campaigns in the past, each of which promoted key characteristics of its products such as fuel-efficiency, durability, reliability and so forth. This year, IPC ups the ante by combining all of their key product traits in a four-fold marketing campaign that will span the entire calendar year. Entitled “Isuzu Diesel Mission”, it was outlined to fleet customers, dealer principals, government officials and members of the media last March 4 at One Esplanade in Pasay City.

The Mission for 2010 The Isuzu Diesel Mission is a four-fold marketing campaign consisting of: Dura Mission, Farthest Mission, Eco Mission and Dyna Mission. Each of these components highlights Isuzu’s widely accepted leadership in diesel technology both in the Philippines and around the world. The first component, Dura Mission, reminds the public of Isuzu vehicles’ durability, toughness and power. IPC intends to do this via customer testimonials, media reviews, sponsored events and the publication of Isuzu’s sales history both here and abroad.

The second component, Farthest Mission, sees Isuzu’s various diesel vehicles undergoing actual demonstrations of toughness and practicality. This includes 4x4 driving clinics, mall tours and sales/service caravans. But the biggest highlight is the return of the Isuzu Challenge, which will have various Isuzu vehicles running on a single tank of fuel through major cities in Luzon. There will be three Isuzu Challenge legs this year. The first will feature the NHR truck in May, then the Crosswind in July and lastly, the D-MAX in October.
