|  Chevy Going To Cummins In 07
The rumor mill starts here. I dont know if this is true or not. But I heard chevy is going to put cummnis motors in 07. Now isnt cummins owned by ford. If thats true then we will have a ford motor in a chevy truck.

| how could cummins be owned by ford when they are put in dodges? Is this just word of mouth or do you have anything to back it up (website or press release)? Or, are you just trolling?

| ford does not has not owned cummins. ford had an intrest in it i believe. thats all. if ford owned cummins why wouldnt they put the cummins in thier own trucks? dodge and cummins has a contract until about 2010 i think. gm and cummins aint gonna happen. for a while any way. but if ford owned cummins that would explain why the cummins is as good as it is. | |

| Hey guys that rumor started a while back when Ford owned stock in cummins for a while. They've since sold it. Rumors fly all the time, but that's gotta be one of the stupidest i've ever heard. Chevy has a good thing going with the duramax, and this year's engine is awesome. It's going to get really good the next few years. And if a cummins engine is going to go from a dodge to any other truck, it'll be in a Ford first before it ever saw a chevy. Try fitting a cummins in the chevy engine bay ....ain't happenin. | |

| The GM duramax engines were co developed with Isuzu. I am pretty sure that Ford makes their own transmissions, but i'll find out for sure. | |

| Dmax LTD (is it ltd?) is a joint partnership between GM and Isuzu Motors. GM owns 51% I believe. GM also owns part of Isuzu Motors (10% I believe.)
Ford makes their own automatic transmission, Torqshift.
I believe Dodge makes their own too?
