Mini Pickup Trucks

There are 11 compact and not-so-compact pickup truck nameplates in the U.S. for the 2008 model year, and all are featured on MSN Autos. Base manufacturer's suggested retail prices range from approximately $14,000 for an entry-level Ford Ranger with regular cab and two-wheel drive, to more than $35,000 for a top-of-the-line Honda Ridgeline RTL with four-wheel drive.

Buyers of the "less-than-full-size" diesel trucks get considerable payload and towing capacity—up to 1,720 and 7,160 pounds, respectively. But they generally pay lower prices than buyers of comparably equipped, large trucks.

Some benefits of these smaller trucks are the same as for larger trucks. Compact and midsize trucks ride higher off the pavement than do cars, so drivers and passengers tend to enjoy good views out of their vehicles. Owners have easygoing cargo space in their pickup beds that they can spray down and clean with hoses. And these smaller trucks—smaller being a relative term here—can be more nimble and easier to park than their larger brethren.

Isuzu’s Clean Up Drive

Isuzu has been known for producing commercial vehicles, particularly medium duty trucks. This is Isuzu’s its primary objective along with producing diesel engines. As a matter of fact, it has produced a staggering number of this kind of engines in a year with the figure going up to 16 million units. And with joint ventures with companies like GMC, their diesel engines have been improving year after year. These engines are being used in various vehicles and various vehicle brands all over the world.

With the diesel engine being known for its “black soot” disease and the rise in environmental awareness, the company sure has got to be working on a plan to reduce the potentially harmful emissions of their engines.

This is just what the company has secured for their two new engines, the 4H and the 6H. Both of these engines are now being used in various Isuzu, GMC, and Chevrolet cars and trucks. These engines have passed the nitrogen oxide emission and the particulate matter emission tests. These tests are being implemented by the government to cut down the increasing harmful effects of such emissions to the environment. With the new design and the inclusion of Isuzu parts, the 4H and the 6H has cut down on the harmful emissions without sacrificing the performance of the engine.

To cut down nitrogen oxide emissions, the company uses their new advanced Exhaust Gas Recirculation (EGR) system on both engines. And to cut down the level of particulate matter on exhaust gases, the company created a ceramic called the Diesel Particulate Filter (DPF). This is a honeycomb channel through which the exhaust gases are made to pass. A porous material in the system traps the particulates. These trapped particulates can then be burned so that it will not clog the system.

Burning this trapped matter can either be self regeneration or a forced one. In the self regeneration process, the particulates are burned by the heat produced by the exhaust gases. If the vehicle does not produce enough hot exhaust gases, the particulate matters can be burned through driver intervention. Once the filter is almost filled to its capacity, the driver is warned through a control light, and then all the driver has to do is to activate a dashboard switch to start the regeneration process. This process is computer aided thus the burning of the trapped particulate matter is ensured.
