Default New Trucks have widebands standard??
Just like the title says, I've heard rumblings the new trucks have widebands instead of narrowbands these days. Can anyone confirm this, I'm curious.

Notta, I dont see that happening on the trucks anytime soon. That is an expensive system to convert over to...

I kinda wonder why they havent gone that route honestly...I can find replacement wideband sensors cheaper then stock narrowbands & I know some VW's use widebands in stock applications.

thanks foff! I saved the website in case anybody finds this thread in the future and needs a good link to find that part. But shouldn't be too hard to find.
