    Ive seen em a few months ago at $275k at some dealerships for the buy now price and wanted to see if people still asking for that.

    I know there’s a difference between buy now and wait 1 year for it. Just want to gauge the market and one way is truck prices.

    I do remember seeing that and salesman had bring that up too. I did add the lane assist on mine but made it where I can turn it all the way down. The little bit that I drove it doesn't bother me any. Figured I would get that put on for when I sale it they would not have any reg issues.

    Had one of my O/O's check the other day and his was ordered CA sale. He got it changed but the salesman didn't know anything about it.

    One of my Volvo's got picked up by the transporter today, so i might see it in a few weeks.

    So, when my truck came out of factory (end of March '22) my salesman said my same spec ordered tomorrow would be 10-15k more in cost. How true that is I have no idea. He tells me he can't even put in orders or get ETA's for his other customers because of the limitations the factory has put.

    I'll sell you mine for $300k though.

    That is great news. When mine got picked up it only took 2 days to get it delivered. Think mine was the last one that was picked.

    You can set it how you want it when it’s ordered. It was his salesman, not the EPA21 regs.

    That's still BS. The owner ought to have the right to set and change parameters as many times as he likes. After the initial try-out period I can understand a modest fee for making changes but still, who owns the truck?
