Yes Toyota has a very nice diesel small truck but not for north America. The old one's got 40+ MPG but were not real powerful. Rumor has it that VW is building a diesel hybid I know they have a deal with China to build batteries coupled to a 1.3L turbo diesel that will get in excess of 100MPG too bad it won't pull a Sunline!

Correct, too bad it won't be able to pull a Sunline. Did Sunline ever make a small slide in for a compact or midsize truck? We have a 9 1/2 foot for our Dodge 3500 (not a compact at all) & people were amazed just how much room there was in it when we were having people look at ours this past weekend tailgating. We changed some minds esp w having a private bathroom, no standing in lines to use the outside jobsite John! Plus the only real setup we have to do is to put up the awning.

Lisa's dad used to pull a small 5th wheel w/ his compact Nissan truck. On the electric side of a hybrid, they are able to produce much more torque, compared to the engine they are mated with. So a standing start shouldn't be so bad w a small unit.
