Angry Why do manufacturers change HD models later!!

Why is it when a vehicle manufacturer changes their trucks they dont change the HD models until a year after the half tons? Sure does make shopping for accesories a pain in the butt! Now Im sitting here with some plastic grille cold weather inserts from lund that are supposed to fit dodge ram and ram sports 2002.they are about an inch to high and 2 inches too short which would likely mean theyd fit an 03. guess I need the one for 94-01

I learned this right after getting my 2002.

Always say it's for a 2001, always.

I agree, if I buy anything off the internet on check for a 2001 and a 2002 just to see if it is a different part number.
