Who really owns these motors??

I just read a thread where someone said Ford owns 90+% of Cummins. THis I highly dought. Why would for spend so much money on their diesels if they own Cummins. And why would dodge put a Ford motor in their trucks. Someone is blowin smoke!!!

Nope it is true. Has been quite the secret but lots of infighting at F*rd so someone signed on with Navistar to produce the Powerstroke and they almost have Cummings in their back pocket. Makes ya wonder eh? Ask fiverbob he knows all the inside track about it.

Of COURSE Cummins would deny being owned by Ford, it's a corporate secret. They adminster their shareholder services through Wells Fargo Shareholder Services to maintain the corporate veil. Check out their annual report, it's true. http://media.corporate-ir.net/media_...s_20001_ar.pdf<br><br> ;D ;D ;D <br><br>[We gotta keep this rumor alive, it's lived so long I'd hate to see it die]<br><br><br>

Ford owns Cummins. . .Cummins owns Ford. . . whatever

This is the oldest, longest, annoying, most untrue rumor that's been floating around, period!
