Cummins Press Release

Demand for engines for the Dodge Ram pickup also continues unabated, and we are pleased that we have received a commitment from DaimlerChrysler that it will offer Cummins as the diesel option for its next generation of Dodge Ram pickup trucks. " Cummins shipped over 100,000 engines to DaimlerChrysler for the pickup truck market in 1999.
