Been tossing around the idea of buying another truck recently and have looked at a few trucks. Was interested in the PW .. but my question is .. Do they make them with the shifter in the center like the 4th gens 1500's or are they just standard shifters ?

No 4th Gen 2500/3500 has a console shifter.

The console shifter is only available in a 1500.

you can still get the bucket seats in the 2500 with a center console, but there's a big hole where the shifter would be in the 1500.

Just a thought, I have no idea if I can be done but people have been converting column shift 4th gens into console shift trucks. wondering if the same parts (shifter linkages and whatever else is needed) would work in a 2500.

with just a 2" level upfront and my bigger tires I actually sit higher than the stock PW. Me and aother member with a PW did all the measurements... But that doesn't help the fact that you are interested in PW and not an outdoorsman lol

Just thaought i'd share
