VM Motori is not some low level cheap crap company, they know their diesels and have a big rep (I sure hope they maintain their past). I would expect that they should be a good partner with chrysler and they have been in the past. The engine paired in the 1500's is not a tow master or torque monster engine. It has decent HP and TQ but its more to fill a void in power vs economy in a small truck chassis.
Sure they could have put a gutless 4cyl diesel in their to get 30 plus MPG, or they could have used a muscle flexed 6 or 8 cyl diesel to be the baddest 1/2ton on the market. Instead they decided to build a respectfully powered diesel with decent fuel mileage. It will definitely have the power and economy most people would want out of a 1/2er.
