what year did chevy change...

[chris989]

Hello all,

Weird question alert.

I own a 89 burb and had a 1996 burb. I am a amputee and in those years i could stretch my left leg out while driving because the under dash floor area is clear of GM foo foo stuff.

I am in the hunt for a newer truck and now they have a large plastic box under the e-brake, near the floor board, that houses a wiring harness. You might not even notice it but for me, I can not articulate my ankle and it is uncomfortable to drive for any long distance.

Anyone have a idea of what year this changed?
Also, when did they lose the arm rest?
Thanks,
Chris
