[QUOTE="browntruckmechanic, post: 921767, member: 7010"] The one thing everyone is forgetting about is that within the next 5 yrs all of these single lap seat belt pkg cars will be gone. All the high step GMC's are ADA's for this year leaving on the high step Internationals in the fleet and those are 2014 ada canidates. So there is no way the company is going to ask the manufacture of the package car to design and submit to DOT a modification for 3 point seat belts. The cost of such a modification on these old pkg cars would mean that the company would hold on to the cars for an additiional 5-8 yres to recoup the money. It boils down to this new cars w/warranty for 3yrs and 36000 miles or keep the old cars around and continue to wear out your knees and ankles. What would you perfer? [/QUOTE]
