Miss Moose, please see my response to you below. I inadvertently posted in x1Heavy's spot...but I can tell he's a good guy and won't mind!
Please accept my apology for assuming you were a woman! A beautiful man you are if that were you lol! So much of trucking is only learned thru decades and decades, going to class daily at The School of Hard Knocks! Take care sir and safe travels to you!
There is no on/off. It's controlled by the paddle shifter, first click down low, second medium, third high. If you're in auto mode and flip right to high it feels like someone wedgying you during the hundred yards dash
It gets worse - when the truck gets 5 mph over what the cruise is set at the truck starts tossing the engine brake. Unless cms gets activated, then the two systems act like Pete and many- a lot of bickering but nothing gets done. And don't get me started on the shiftpoints.
The neurologist at the Hampton VA is an idiot, total tool. Because of the way the VA is set up my PCP (Primary care physician) can not treat me for this. She does however prescribe my medications. My actual Physician that is in charge of my care is over at Riverside and I am using the Veterans Choice Program to see him. Want an example of how stupid that Neurologist at the HVAMC is look at this. I had an appointment to see him in 2016. About 2 weeks before this I passed out and took a large gouge out of the area just below my knee cap on my left leg. When this tool got his hammer out to check my reflex he hit me right inside that still open wound. I left his office holding a bandage to control the bleeding. Thankfully I was wearing shorts that day. These stories coming out about VA care is mostly true. I have witnessed a lot of it, both here in Hampton as well as Atlanta.
