Damn, GLogan, you made me remember my Vega. Second new car I ever owned. Had it six months and it was gone.
Time will tell on the merger but I don't think that GM will have any bad influence on Cummins, they won't allow it. They may decide to eliminate Cummins from the Ram line but I doubt it.
So, what do we have then? A poorly made truck with a high quality engine??
We can only hope that the US automakers will get the point and start making some sound business decisions with manufacturing costs and stop cheating product design and quality.
