Oh! Since the near death of the 5.9 for the 5.7 (hopefully) SOHC, the new
5.7 will pass the new standard as the 4.7 did.

For what it's worth - Quad Cabs are all avail. in all trims except 5.9L,
due to emissions hold. I ordered the CC 4.7L (6 to 8 weeks) & my buddy
ordered his QC w/ 5.9L, and was told at the dealer, the ETA is "pending"
a release of the 5.9 due to emissions hold from the EPA. (suks...)
