Interesting.

Caterpillar won't design a light truck engine. They even got out of the over the road truck market. Won't have anything to do with emissions. They're all off road now.

Of course losing the engine would be the downfall of their hd truck market. The two I was refering to is your first statement of losing cummins. Not true Dodge and Cummins reach multi-year contract extension - Autoblog

And second that Cat is out of the otr truck market Cat On-Highway Truck

This rumor hit's these forums every year for the ten plus years I have been active on them. It's never gonna happen.

The other ones that keep making the rounds are that Ford owns Cummins and they are going to take over the Cummins line of engines and we can't forget the the eternal thread that will pop up here any day now about boycotting BP to bring down the price of diesel fuel. It comes out every spring.
