Right hand drive huh? I think he must have flipped the pic when editing the photo or something.

Chevrolet is spelled backwards on the tailgate, pictures are flipped.

Windshield wipers are backwards in the pic too... All the gauges would have to be switched in the bezel too...

The pictures are all mirror images. If you flip them, they look correct

Re: Am I seeing this right??? what's wrong with this picture?

My guess is that original pictures were prints and then scanned with a scanner. Perhaps the seller didn't understand (or realize or care) that the software can correct this...... and posted them as-is.

Nice truck for the price. Monster side mirrors.

Re: Am I seeing this right??? what's wrong with this picture?

I agree that the pic is flipped. A right hand drive is not simply a mirror of a left hand drive.
