re: Tata launches a range of 'Cheaper' Prima Trucks

So basically a Prima shell and a Cummins engine will be sold.
Why will anyone want to buy that when a capable product is offered by TML themselves in the form of 4018/4923 albeit with less power.
I don't think people who think Prima looks stylish have any power in the buying decision (read the Drivers).
Lets see if this revives the beautiful Prima range at all.
