There's been some traffic about 4500/ 5500s on the diesel truck resource forums lately: http://www.dieseltruckresource.com/dev/index.php
quad cab 5500
The Dodge web site shows the Quad Cab as an option
for both 5500 and 4500 trucks in the current model year
(2008). How is the 2009 1500 Quad Cab different?

2009 Ram 1500
The spy photos of the 2009 Ram 1500 show a crew cab (vs. the current quad) with locking storage cabinets in the truck bed.
According to Automotive News, the Ram 1500’s V8 Cummins turbodiesel will have about 260-300 hp and 460 lb-ft of torque, with mileage likely to be about 20 mpg city, 25 mpg highway.
The best info I could find is at http://www.allpar.com/model/ram/2009-ram.html. The truck will officially debut at the January Detroit Auto Show.
Now if only they would offer a 2009 Power Wagon 2500 (4x4, full crew cab, small V8 Cummins, with a manual tranny or the six-speed Aisin automatic available in the chassis cab). Serious off-road capability, 20+mpg, and a respectable payload.
Why isn't this possible? They have so much potential (Power Wagon, Cummins, Jeep J8, etc.), but don't get it. Ugh!!! Now I'm bummed.
