Default Rumor Alert?

Can anyone help me with this? I've been hearing lately that ford is revoking the cummins rights from dodge and possibly being able to buy a ford cummins or powerstroke? Has anyone heard anything?

I have never heard this before, there was a rummor a long time ago that Ford bought a bunch of Cummins stock and was going to get Dodge out of their contract with Cummins and put it in a Ford. Cummins has boughten all their stock back from Ford iirc.

I appreciate the compliment, I would not trade her for anything, and it would take more than most people would be willing to pay before I would sell her!
