Cummins too powerful had toget a powerstrokee

This was to good to keep to my self. I was fueling up and a PS at the other pump asked me how many drive shafts had I twisted off. I was a little worried about maybe something I havent heard about and asked what he meant and was told that he bought a Powerchoke because he was told the Cummins motor made so much power that it would rip out gears on a 5sp and twist off drive shafts on autos, so me not wanting to hurt his feelings any more than they already were,(Powerchoke, remember) I told him took it real easy and didnt have any problems. Awsome motor these Cummins.
