Hummin' Cummins the Song

[@alpineartstudio]

Started with Cummins in 1978. This was part of an entire campaign where they offered Hummin Cummins hats, jackets, shirts, belt buckles, etc. I was 18 then and still work for Cummins today. Happy 100th Cummins!

[@saintsarecoming13]

I just started in April as a TAP student. Greatest company I've ever worked for hands down.

[@jessiplourde9121]

I prefer cat anything or a series 60. Mechanical n14 is ok but the ISX has problems all the time

[@leaarmstrong8281]

My Granddaddy, Daddy and Uncle worked for them. My Daddy brought this record home and it was one of his favorites!

[@angelathomas7673]

My Pappaw brought this record home when I was a kid. He retired from there as did both of my parents. I worked there for 13 years and my daughter worked there for 7 years.

[@shannykinredgate3451]

I grew up in Columbus, Indiana, home of Cummins engines. My little brothers and me would jam out to this 45 on my little phonograph. Good memories

[@DJKPATT]

This is my COMPANY!!! Yeahhhhh. Happy Anniversary Cummins - 100 Years!

[@saintsarecoming13]

Mine too! Happy anniversary Cummins!

[@sheilabostic7106]

I had this record my dad worked at Cummins n got it for me. 10/4

[@scottpisces8591]

My grandad worked for Peterbilt. And in the late 70s he gave me the 8track and 45 single record.. I love hearing this song..takes me back

[@laurencecasalettolll5785]

I'm 67 years old and what I'm going to refer to is actually before my time. However I have worked on 150 / 165 Cummins engines { Intake & exhaust on the same side} and 220s all the way up to small bore 335s{ 5.1/8 in bore all. } Then came the 5.1/2in bore all the way from 250 to a 12 cylinder !!! I made my life on Cummins !!

[@punisher3607]

That's so cool! Cummins will run forever 👍

[@crixmorgan]

my grandpa worked at cummins in Columbus IN and brought me home the 45, way back when, still got it too.........

[@eternalbeing3339]

This song will be on repeat cranked up in my 12 valve.

[@bradenking8613]

Same in my big turbo 24v

[@cm30256]

And my 2015 6.7

[@cm30256]

I miss my old 1984 4300 INTERNATIONAL with a 400 big cam 855. Listening to this right now in my 2005 ram 2500 Cummins

[@thedotdoctor]

Remember my dad bringing home this 45 when I was kid. Learned it by heart and sang it all the time. Catchy tune!

[@HunkyboiSherman]

Cummins is the best Diesel engine in pickups and semis change my mind

[@CG-lk6pk]

No kidding my buddy Chuck drives a Cummins 25/8/366 and his cousin straight outta Compton Neal's dad Gary drives a Cummins as well !!

[@joshbuster100]

CAT. nuff said

[@Gabriel-oy2ed]

I physically cant, no duramax or powerjoke will ever beat a Cummins

[@austinallen9207]

I own a cummins and I’m a diesel mechanic I love cummins and believe it’s the best engine for a pickup but the best engine for a semi will be a Detroit

[@alexanderpettit2106]

Cummins,Cat and Detroit are the best.

[@wvseltzer]

That song brings back loads of memories. Sounds funny, but my father worked for Cummins for 30+ years and he played that song every time we went on a road trip. It's been a long time since I heard that song, thanks.

[@garywheeler3244]

dad got this when he worked at cummins my bro and I listened to it every time dad played it on the stereo turntable

[@Jobe00]

Before he died, my dad worked for Cummins Mid-South in Memphis for several years. Somewhere, I have this on 45.

[@91379pete]

To bad most of you don't understand the song.. Its not about a Dodge, Chevrolet or Ford diesel pickup . This song is about REAL diesel trucks.

[@mavericksmith2798]

Bout a good ol Tractor (or truck)

[@funyuns77]

Yeah but you sound real gay

[@katherinemonroe6387]

hahaha

[@Meditech509]

I was 12 years old when my father had bought and drove home a brand new 82 Intl CO9670 Eagle with 400 Big Cam ll and 13 speed. It seemed so big and I remember climbing up into the beautiful cab. All those switches and big gauges and thought it was so cool it had the sports car short shifter and huge sleeper. It came with a cassette tape that had this song on it. We laugh to this day about pulling 105500 and reserve power became reserve shit pulling a grade. Loved every trip hauling hay with dad.

[@punisher3607]

That's so cool man! Cummins forever!

[@BCRification]

Never heard that one before.Cool!I remember a KW song they used to play on the late night trucking shows that went" I've been working long in life ,for the things I want own, I'm goin' to get me a KENWORTH" I wonder if anyone has that one! Thanks for posting!

[@Rastonification]

I worked for 30 years at Cummins in various plants in southern Indiana. Worked 15 years or so in emissions making sure we met the EPA's strict air standard regulations.

[@deknight1965]

My brother in law worked at Cummins until he retired; and my father had misgivings about not working there.

[@nunyaflipinbeez]

good song

[@bighunterman77]

my grandmother has this single on a record...

[@nicknick8160]

1,569,982 miles on her. Getting her first in-frame overhaul.

[@TATA-tv8mw]

For all you kids that think cummins only makes an ISB (5.9,6.7 in case you don't know what ISB is) this song is about the 855 cummins, a REAL engine.

[@kencaldwell1399]

TA TA Actually, it's about the "K" series. 1150 cubes.

[@garywalker8493]

Ken Caldwell this is not about k series engines, this is a promo song directly targeting highway use which at the time was essentially 100% using the 855 cu in/14 liter straight 6. K series engines were primarily marine or stationary power generators either straight 6 or v12 and were physically too large for a standard truck. Dad worked there for many years and was loosely associated with the song. I worked there in engineering and know how their products were used at that time. We discused this song in detail when it was made. Cummins also had a v8 that was mostly used in buses.

[@kencaldwell1399]

I heard about this song on The Tim Ridley show on XM. The gentleman was a Cummins employee who was a guest a few times to speak on the history of Cummins engines. I don't know if the shows are available on podcast or not, but I heard the show about the 855 series and this was not mentioned. It was mentioned in detail on the show about the K series as Cummins was marketing it as the way to get fuel economy. I know the 855 was ruling the roads then and the K was not in many trucks, but that was Cummins' plan, according to this person.

[@Oceandiver11727]

@@garywalker8493 I was working for Cummins when this song came out. It was in support of using K engines in on highway trucks. The whole thing was a bust in the long run, the K's were just too much power for a class 8 truck. As the saying goes, diesel's like to run loaded up, most of the K's just developed leaks all over the place because they were not in fact being loaded for what they were built to do. Unique applications were successful, like sand haulers, but not for the on highway guys.

[@ssjjj555ify]

My dad worked for Cummins Southwest for 38 years before he retired, I still have the belt buckle and 45 that was given to him and yes this is about the on highway Cummins not the Dodge or Nissian

[@carlosgalvan8377]

[@maryraisorking]

[@bighunterman77]

@CountryBoyToy18 stock, yeah, but the Cummins lasts longer, and is a lot easier to build powa on

[@spraguejosh35]

GIT-ER-DID WHOOO CUMMINS ISX!!!!!

[@bighunterman77]

this was prolly one of the first ever songs used for advertising...anyone know what "reserve power" was

[@garywalker8493]

bighunterman77 Reserve power was having enough extra horsepower so that you could maintain normal highway speed uphill so that you did not have to speed during the remainder of the trip to make up for lost time. Thus reserve power for constant speed.

[@stickstud17]

@73ford250 just overhauled one this week!

[@jackhewitt7902]

People who dislike this hate diesel:(

[@mathewmclean9128]

Where can I find the lyrics to this song?

@CountryBoyToy18 sweet

[@Syyllinen95]

[@TozziWelding]

I need an 8.3 to replace the 6.5 turd in my Jimmy

[@MontanaMisfit]

@Evinrudeoutboard1 ford puts a cummins in their 650s

[@supermotox55]

5.9L Cummins 24V, nothin' but a cummins.

[@CowSausages]

You mean the 855 Cummins, right? This hasn't got nothin to do with pickups.

[@dave194315]

+CowSausages It's still a fucking cummins engine you dipshit, stop being such a whiny little girl whining about how dodge cummins aren't "real" trucks

[@JTKerr]

+dave194315 this song is about semis though, plus 24 valves are shit. 12v is where its at

[@holedigger7755]

+CowSausages Cummins motors are in pickups and 18-wheelers

[@CowSausages]

+dave194315 well. We could see who has the bigger balls by towing 80000 kg (176369 lbs) up a 5% grade (139 meters up in 2.8 km). The engine in your dinky car would melt the balls off of a brass monkey, if it didn't die trying to start out. And no, I do not dip any form of feces, but if you want, bet 2 dozen chocolate dipped donuts and give them to me after I pull your dinky car(and two trailers totalling 160000kgs) off the road. Not only that, your molten iron left from the engine block would have to be scraped off the pavement before the DOT/MTO got there. Plus, this song was made way before pickup truck diesels. And don't fight me because I know because gramps had the first pickup diesel. A Ford gas burner V8 converted to diesel by Ford and it ran like a hunk of junk

[@carbpumper]

@carbpumper sorry to be negative but i dont think they have a song have a song

[@louscapotello4583]

Go Chevy

[@RobertCarrizal]

i am fans for caterpillar diesel power sorry cummins!!!

[@TheJoecool1972]

@CountryBoyToy18 too bad the psd is a pos, sounds like crap, and the 6.7 cummins makes same amount of torque! 800-800

[@Xyleksoll]

Diesel monte carlo

[@kylercummins212]

I am cummins

[@jordanjones-fm7ge]

CAT would destroy the new isx cummins though!

[@kencaldwell1399]

jordan jones Hell, you don't need a Cat. The ISX does a pretty decent job of falling apart by itself.

[@93cheyennesucks]

cummins are garbage junk
