Subject: Re: [USMA:52385] Pickup truck dashboard
Assuming you are in the US and looking for a US-spec model, try seeing if
you can get a Canadian-spec dash. Speedometer will then be km/h predominant
(with mph as a secondary scale, which should comply with US laws), and the
other instruments (e.g. outside temperature readout) will also be metric.
if you are buying new, you may be able to get a Canadian spec model direct
(which will then include daytime running lights, but will otherwise be
almost identical to the US version, although often certain specific versions
of a model may be available in Canada and not the US, and vice versa). If
buying used, you might see if you can buy Canadian parts and retrofit them.

I'm planning to get a pickup truck soon, probably new. If I want a metric
dashboard, should I ask for a custom-made truck, find one on the lot and ask
the dealer to change the dashboard, or what?
