What the heck's an Isuzu analysis mule accomplishing banging about the Midwest? There's no achievement that this D-Max, based on the GMT 355 platform, will anytime see a North American showroom, back the aggregation afresh bankrupt up its covering and left.

What's best acceptable is that an OEM is accomplishing some development assignment on the big 3.0-liter four pot turbodiesel. Pickuptrucks.com speculates that Bosch or AVL's Detroit-area outposts ability be bribery with the agent beneath the billowing hood, as the agent has been apparent activity to and fro some engineering facilites. So, while the abstraction of a GMT 355 with a torque-tacular turbo-diesel is exciting, it's acceptable not acceptable that consumers actuality will anytime get the adventitious to buy one. Darn.
