Why does this question keep coming up?? Every week somebody asks "does Ford own Cummins" or "when will Ford get the Cummins for the super duty?" good god!!! When will the madness end!?!?!?!?!? FORD DOES NOT, AND NEVER DID OUTRIGHT OWN CUMMINS!!! And theyll NEVER get the mighty Cummins!! (Im excluding the 650/750)

Didn't they ask you if it was a 4WD or 2WD ?? I love when they do that.
Then you asked them why, they look at you with a "spaced" look and say it says it in the computer....

I always wanted to hack in any of these systems and put questions like " Is it red color or blue color ?" "Are you divorced ? " "Native American or African American use ? " " With or without windshield wipers ? "

Can we put FORD DOES NOT OWN CUMMINS on the home page so this question does not keep coming up and eating server space. Just an idea

i had one guy tell me that ford is putting cummins in their 2009 model and dodge is going to suck because they are all using mercedes disesel engines.

he than proceeded to tell me that in diesel engines spark plugs are replaced by glow plugs and that they ignite the fuel every combustion stroke. when i told him my truck didn't have glow plugs he insisted that i was idiot cause if it didn't my truck wouldn't run.
