I wish caterpillar would partner with someone to build a pickup. Dream on I guess...
Why? Cat's smaller engines (3126/3116/C7,C9) are an unreliable joke. If you want an on highway CAT motor these days, you'll have to get a Navistar with a Maxxforce motor, that's a Cat long block with Navistar's emissions system shotgun-married together because Cat gave up on the on highway market a few years ago.
The 6.6L Perkapillar engine might work in a light truck, but it ain't really a Cat. That's a good thing, Perkins knows a thing or two about smaller diesels, that's why Cat bought em.
