    That was my last batch either back in the spring of 2021 or fall of 2020. Can’t remember.

    The two recent trucks last month, the batteries have been just fine. You should be good.

    Buy you a def sensor, my neighbors went out on his new 389 down for 6 weeks and mine went out on my new hx520 luckily they had one still down 3 days.

    Id buy extra emissions sensors, #### things may as well be made of pure unobtanium at this point.

    Why would you want to pre-order parts when your truck is spanking brand new with a full Warranty?

    “parts shortage”, sucks to set and wait for parts, warranty doesn’t make the parts come faster. I needed the air sensor that sets your low air warning buzzer off my local dealer told me sometime in 2023. So I ordered one online and promptly sold the truck for almost what I paid for it 8 months earlier.

    That would be hard to part with. Very nice. My favorite color. I wouldn’t buy anything myself. I’ve found some shortages at Dealerships. Back ordered parts, for my old Freightliner. Still available online. Usually at a much lower price.
