Yes. It has a 2.8 liter Italian turbodiesel in it, with lots of torque, and pretty good mileage for such a heavy vehicle.

My engine is the 3.7L V6 215HP. It seems a little underpowered for the 1/4 ton pickup. It is smooth, but I have to speed up about 10 miles more just to make it up a hill on the highway while maintaining the speed limit. Otherwise I would fall under the speed limit and have to down shift to fourth gear at 3,000+ RPMs which can't be good all the time. I normally own Hondas, but wanted a truck this time. My last vehicle was a Civic EX and it zoomed up and down hills and all with out a problem. So the truck makes me feel like I'm an old man driving with the blinker on. :P
