    Inframe on my 03 12.7 is $19k….. my buddy just had a quote on his isx for $32k.

    Yeah….ummmmm no thanks for an emissions truck. And I got 1.1 million. He got 634k

    Yes it’s coming, but it’s not new. They threw my V8’s out of CA in ‘85. Still, until someone can explain to me how engines that use more fuel put less emissions in the air i’m calling BS on the whole scam.

    600k out of an ISX he should be thrilled. I’ve had a few fly apart with way less than that.
