I cant be of any help here. I've been out of the picture on new inventory since Dec 2023. I stocked all heated handle models, but I was about the only dealer I knew of who did that. If they were on the wall, they'd sell.

This is the coolest thread on the site. Mopar or no car. You guys have a VERY impressive knowledge of these trucks. Never had a cummins. Had a 1994 with a 318. Liked the red interior, only 94 and 95 had the red and blue interiors. Other truck we used as a shop truck was an '03 with the...
