A friend of mine works at a Chevy dealer and sent me a copy of a letter from GM that says they will no longer be building the 4500 & 5500 series trucks that we all mostly use. In fact it stated that not all the orders that they have in house will not be built, just didn't say when they would cut off production.
So good luck on your search. Hope you decide on a Dually. Seems to be the only type left that will be produced.

My son has a 99 Ford Ranger that looks like it competed in a demoltion derby.He wanted to get the voucher for it and buy a new truck.Problem is,There are 4 in our household We all work.Guidlines state that our combined net income cant exceed 63,000 to qualify for the voucher.Working familys take it in the shorts again?

I think July next year is the cut off date to quit building these trucks.
