When did Ford sell Cummins?

I know Ford use to own Cummins but when did they sell them? Having a discussion at work and a couple guys still believe Ford owns cummins. Does anybody have a link to prove it?

ford never sold cummins, because ford never owned cummins.
in 94 ford bought 1.3 million shares of cummins stock, or about 3% of the available common shares. and sold it back to cummins in 97.

As a share holder you are partial owner. So you ate wrong there. Also cause you said they sold it back in 97. So by being a share holder and partial owner you just sound ignorant. Sorry but if you hols more then 0.5555555559% of any stock you are a partial owner. So please educate yourself. And yeah I'm an idiot. But at least I knew this.

there is a big difference between being an owner, and a share holder.
