    Quit wasting time and go to Cummins. Seriously.

    Its amazing to me all the crap talk that happens when all someone has to do is go to factory Cummins.

    Not knowing how it works for me since I am a Volvo guy. So I am taking it there are only Cummins shops regardless of brand of trucks? Since Volvo sells Cummins they would not be able to do anything? I would think if I bought my truck at a Volvo dealer they would be able to do anything to fix the issue but thinking I am wrong.

    Just like taking a Detroit to Detroit or Cat to Cat. Can cut out a lot of problems.

    Makes sense for sure. I guess I never really gave it any thought since I have been with Volvo and they have own powertrain.
