Cummins is an Industrial engine.
Cummins 6bt engine is in every market. Hell Ford used it in class 6,7 and 8 trucks for how long?
yes starting in 1984 Cummins has been put in alot of industrial equipment as well as running stationary equipment like pumps and generators running 24/7 for months on end, sure the first Cummins in a Dodge truck was a 160hp non-intercooled smokey dog, but they pulled very well and were almost indestructible, with little maintenance.
this alone is what sold the trucks, I have owned many Dodge diesel trucks, but it wasn't because I like a Dodge truck.
