    Wonderful....just what we need.
    What camera events? Like hard braking and following too close?

    Drivers leaving because of collision avoidance systems? Woo boy more seniority on that board for me :D

    But in all honesty, yes it's annoying. Even more so when doing a uturn in front of our store docks and the truck slams the brakes thinking I'm going to hit the wall. Or when it detects an overpass and thinks I'm going to hit it. Or better yet, the green highway signs. Haha...:eek:

    Actually when I see someone on the edge of a psychotic episode, I like to leave the truck in reverse with the key on when I park so the back up alarm is beeping.

    That's good; help them over that edge, get them full blown and wound up. Parking lot psychiatry at its best.

    Does anyone know if the Internationals are as annoying as the Freightliners?

    I may consider transfering to a DC with Internationals if they are not as bad.

    The drive would be the same distance to either DC, so no big deal.

    It may be just me, but I find the internationals easier to ignore. I’m not sure if it’s quite as persistent as the freightliners...I slip seat so it’s been a bit since I’ve been in the international but that’s what I remember.

    I just got into my first auto truck and its dangerously slow in eco shift mode. Can we sign a petition to atleast unlock performance shift mode for us? I have a mini panic attack when it shifts to top gear at 55mph and lugggs it all the way out to 65.
