When it was initially posted the title indicated it was a gas chassis. I was confused as well when I saw the picture.

All I made a mistake when I submitted the notes to the admin
It is a Diesel chassis

You don’t have to look any closer than the blue DEF tank cap.

Where does it state that this one will have a gasoline engine? It says Diesel chassis and the picture shows the badge indicating such.
