    So drop my load in chicago and decided to search for mts tomorrow morning since I had less than a hour on my 14. To my surprise I saw an mt just sitting near the front gate of the railyard. Drop my load and grab it before somebody had the same idea ^_^

    But I remember I have to get a pm done...so I have to drop the mt in the yard and drop my truck off for the night......

    I hope I get no surprises when I come back

    Great looks like they change my idle too, can't high idle oh and they install this awesome feature. If I open my door without popping the brake, my horn blare on!! So now no more running to my truck while it roll away since I always forget the brakes!! Nice job schneider! -_- this is getting annoying. I wonder what else they change.

    Oh yeah, 2nd gear, I can't go pass 10rpm but the rest I can go to 14-15. Hmmm

    No more running after the truck? ?? You don't need to chase it. It'll stop eventually.

    Found out on my own. Idle, doesn't really bother me, after I did my pump down I realize that I couldn't high idle and remember someone posted about it here.

    1-3 gear, can't pass 10rpm, which I usually shift at 10 or 11 but I don't look at my rpm when shifting, just base on experience and noise, I was starting off and about to shift when I loss power and realize I couldn't pass 10

    Horn going off if you open your door without popping the brakes. Well I usually open and pop at the same time, or when I scale, I don't pop the brakes to get a better reading on the scale, but open the door to push the call buttom.

    Also I have to open my door while passing by the guard house at the railyard so my horn be blaring while I roll pass them.

    Honestly it seem like they are babysitting me like I don't know how to do my job. Micromanage, and it's really getting on my nerve.

    Give me a bare truck, no on guard, I don't even care for qualcomm, just tell me where to go and what time I should get there and I'll do my job.
