Wish i had cummins

Gas only 1.14ltr here in Edmonton!

We get gouged and it comes from the friggin ground here


I have no idea what Cummins is. I assume it's diesel, but the only diesel I have experience with is tractors and Volkswagen which is the biggest diesel car manufacturer.

It's been 1.25 for the last little while here. 1.14 is pretty great. If they refined it in Alberta, it would be a lot cheaper than that.

Hemi is just a type of engine. Upon further review, Cummins is a diesel engine. Never heard of it before.

I don't think I'd ever buy a non-German diesel vehicle though. Don't really like non German cars anyway. Wish I could buy the VW truck, they don't have it over here though.

What good haven't they done? I've owned three different VW group cars (2005 Passat TDI, 2012 VW CC, 2011 Porsche Panamera) and I'm trying to convince my fiancée to trade in her Lexus and buy an Audi A5 Cabrio. They're my favourite cars, and clearly I'm not alone because Volkswagen is going to pass GM as the largest vehicle manufacturer within the next few years.

Never had a problem with them, my as well stay brand loyal.
