CAT's next for Ford?

Hey guys, been hearing lots of rumors about Ford junking the 6.0 liter PowerJOKE, and switching to a Cat engine. Nothing concrete, but wondering if anybody here has heard anything? I've also heard about a 6.6 liter twin-turbo engine for Ford in 2007 to meet emissions. I know that Cat has already come out with the twin-turbo ACERT engine for trucks, so maybe something is in the works. All I can say is, I do love Cat engines as much as a Cummins, but dont worry, this Dodge will be on my farm until it completely dies, and maybe more than that!
