Ford and Cummins
Ford used to own a chunk of Cummins (~30%). But they divested themselves of that stock a while ago. If they own any Cummins stock now, it is a very small amount. Ford is very much in Navistar's camp now.

I guess I am out of date on the ownership of Cummins... thanks for the update.
As far as Cummins in the Ram, sure they are updating, but from what I have read on the 'net and in magazines, as soon as the contract with Cummins expires, Rams and Dodge work vans will be getting MB diesels (which makes a ton of sense)

Mercedes is working on a replacement for the Cummins and also a competitor for the V6 "Baby" PSD for the half tons. Should be interesting to see what they come up with. The 03 Cummins is going to be an impressive engine.
