If well taken care of 900,000+ miles, if not 500,000 miles, that's stats on the first generation ones though.
Well, first of all it's spelled and pronounced Cummins, and it is an engine manufactured by that company.

If you mean the Cummins Diesel Engine in Dodge trucks, the first 5.9L Cummins that was produced up until 2007.5 was a 6-cylinder diesel. The new 6.7L Cummins (2007.5 to current) is a 6-cylinder diesel also and is proven to be VERY reliable. An in line 6 has less compact parts which means they are stronger, second in line engines produce their torque very low in the RPM range unlike V8's their for it is easier to tow. I6 are also cheaper to build than the V8. And in case your wondering why the I6 is better at torque its because they have a longer stroke. The Cummins is a well built engine and is FAR superior to any other diesel out their.
Clessie Lyle Cummins was an entrepreneur who made huge improvements on already existing diesel engines. In 1919 he invented the first "Cummins" diesel engine and received 33 United States Patent Awards for his invention. He had drastically improved previous diesel engines to make them faster, more powerful, durable, and reliable. Some well maintained cummins engines have reached over 1 million miles without any rebuilds making them the best diesel engine available until current day. -by Eric Estrada
Replace the fuel filter every 15000 miles or every one year. Whichever comes first.
