This episode blindsided us with what we didn’t know about Cummins and Dodge/Ram. Our guest tells us how the 5.9L wasn’t the first choice, how it almost didn’t happen and where your favorite truck/engine combo came from. He also shares with us a cool resource for 1st Gen owners looking to restore their trucks!
