well considering dodge deislerships wont even work on sprinters i dont see how dodge would do something as stupid as that. Mercedes diesels arent meant for americans. we need good dependable enginges to beatthe crap out of and that means no mercedes.

Huh, everytime I go into my local dealer they have a Sprinter in the shop. My diesel buddy up there always complains about having to work on those darned things. I don't think a dealer would sell a single one of those if they told their customers that they couldn't service them.

Next we will be hearing that in 2008 or 2010 DC will be dropping their truck lines to focus on better fuel economy and greener vehicles.... Maybe we should start that rumor about Frod.... Mr. Ford is concerned about the environment so much and seeing the impact that his company can have on it has decided to drop all of their large truck lines inorder to focus on their high fuel mileage cars..... Yeah thats it... And I heard that from a friends golf partners buddy that cleans Mr. Fords Laundry!!!
I think he is the same guy spreading rumors about Ford owning Cummins!

The 'Net makes it difficult to determine things like sarcasm, or joking.
That "Dodge is losing the Cummins" rumor HAS been around since the Ford camp was forced to settle for the PowerStroke diesel.
It's getting rather long in the tooth.
Time to put that and the "Ford Owns Cummins" rumor to rest....permanantly.

It is a good thing that I bought my Cummings when I did. Maybe in '08 they'll put 2 cylinder yanmars in the rams. that would be cool huh? you could fit like 6 of them in there.I love rumors. especially silly ones that have been beat to death already.

they can come and get it, voided warranty and all. I'll just take a aircooled VW motor, shave the heck out of the heads, remove the spark plugs, and run it on RUM. ha ha ha.
Boy these voices are starting to get to me.

I think we should have a rotating banner saying It's cummins not cummings. Ford hasn't owned any part of Cummins since 1997 and the g-56 6spd transmission runs with 3.73s like most manuals do with 4.10s.
