Are you a dual cummins family?

I am, but not in the traditional way you might think. Ive got an 04.5 CTD600 quad cab long bed 4x4 2500. Dad has a 2004 Winnebego vectra 40' diesel pusher, CTD8.3 with the allison 5 spd and new frieghtliner evolution chassis.

I call this picture, Dr. Evil, and Mini me....



Who else has more than one cummins in the family?

Does it count if one of the Cummins is sitting on the utility room floor? Right now there are two of them there.

I have a 99 QC 4X4 flatbed ctd.
Brother has a 98 QC 4x4 12 valve ctd.
Dad has an 04 4 door 4x4 ctd.
Wife has a 98 Durango 4x4.

Funny thing is before I bought my wife her Durango new in 98 none of us would have ever thought of buying a Dodge!!

My dad has a '90 4X4 Standard Cab w/5 speed and about 285,000 miles on it. With this little old 160 hp inline 6 cylinder he has converted a couple of his friends to the Cummins group. They both have Cummins in dualies as work trucks.

I have the one in my signature and just turned 6,000 miles on it coming home from work last night.

I asked him last November if he were to buy a new truck what would it be and his answer was a Cummins. Sure wish I could afford to give him a new one!
