Re: GM to make 94,000 4.5L diesels per year

They are obviously being conservative with the numbers at first.
The 6.6 Duramax has always been sold out production wise every year because of production restraints at Moraine. Which is a good thing. It keeps the plant running at full capacity, keeping costs down.
The diesel market right now is just beginning to show signs of revving up in the U.S. I'm sure they will have expansion possibilities available if the demand warrants.
