    Right from MR Steve....

    “Digital dash update. Seems my previous digital dash post caught some attention. The Peterbilt factory has informed me that anything built after July 19th 2021 will have the digital dash as a mandatory option. No more legacy dash. Anything built before that date will have the current dash option. I have a truck with the new dash being built in February and will post pics and details as soon as it arrives.”

    Old iron is headed to the melting pot sooner than later. I had my 99 kw leased on a company then sat it down & drove my 2004 frt. I got rid of the frt. When I went to bring it back on, at first they told me I couldn't (company passed a memo no trucks older than 2000). I got an exemption been with them for a while no issues. You see what happened in California no trucks older than 2011:eek:. It won't be long

    They're all going to end up in the midwest driven by guys like me who run their own authority.

    I give it a year and 4state or somebody will make a conversion kit for the low price of around 5 grand.

    All at a time when auto companies are shuttering plants because the global semiconductor industry can't keep up with production.
    Makes sense to me.
