I have noticed lots of people listing thier trucks for sale using "Cummings Diesel" instead of the correct alternative. Also ford no longer owns any shares of Cummins, that was a long time ago, cummins then bought them back, although anyone can buy shares of Cummins since it is a publicly traded company.

Ford don't own Cummins, I own Cummins!

BTW, will Dodge still be offering the Allison in the Ram after 09? That's a hell of a combination!

ARP Headstuds have Cummings on the label on the box. Also I hate to point this out to the ones that don't already know but you can sometimes get some sweet deals on Ebay if you search Cummings. Less people bidding if it doesn't show up in the normal Cummins search.

I just did a search and its true, there was a complete 24v engine for sale that says CUMMINS on the valve cover and they still list it as cummings.
