In Mexico pollution what pollution. They don't care. That is the only thing I can think of why they don't have it here.

Sometimes I wonder what DC is thinking. They haven't made chassis-cab 3500's since the change in body style, and now they're not releasing the 4500/5500 till 2007. That's 5 years without a heavy duty truck. I can tell you they've lost alot of sales around here. People with old dodge chassis-cabs and looking for new ones are having to get Chevys or Fords. We're in the same boat. We'll be needing a new ranch truck this year or 06, and the boss already said we're not getting a dodge with a bed. Looks like I see a Ford in my future.

Isn't Freightliner and DC connected in some way?? We changes to Freightliner FL60's with cummins engines and alison transmissions. Now they are comming with CAT engines. I'll keep my cummins freightliner. One thing about the freightliners though is that the entire wireing harnes is not color coded.. all the wires are the same Yellow color. Good luck tracing the wireing in that truck...!!!

I just saw a black 4500 flat bed in town today fiberglass faring kit on the front of the bed to the cab. I've never seen one before, maybe someone changed the numbers Didn't look as big as the ones in the pictures above though.
