Custom Builds - Dash Cluster- Is it me?

I see a whole lot of custom builds out there. TV, mags, and was wondering if anyone else has the same opinion as me.

Why is it a 60k truck with everything custom but a stock dash cluster?

I am not knocking on the purest because I know what needs to belong in what kind of build, but the factory layout is bland when accompanied with a one off interior. << my opinion only

I began analyzing the major fault that I have with the factory cluster and for that matter, all other clusters that I have seen on the market and they miss the biggest issue. LINE OF SIGHT

So does anyone else see my gripe or am I alone on this one?

To accommodate my OCD on this, I have modeled my future gauge cluster.

All input will be welcome and appreciated.

Gauges for the moment are Autometer Ultralite II utilizing the new Driver Center for the turn signals and indicator and are set back at roughly a 10 degree angle.

Machining will be completed out of HDPE plastic.

Thanks
Darrell
