Scion corp has had a small truck in its lineup vision since east coast launch. Something about the size of the pre Tacoma toy truck. Their thinking was along the lines of light duty work, unibody. I doubt they will release a diesel due to costs (development).

However, with Nissan and gm coming out with diesel variants, and Tacoma being due for a redesign by 2015MY, I can see that being a late release to see if they are loosing sales to either. I fully expect to see a USDM spec D4-D motor taco by 2017 calendar year.

There are retrofits for that available now out there, but it's close to $20k and my expo rig doesn't need that yet.
