    I have a question for anyone that has these Junkliners with all the sensitive nanny systems. Does your truck throw a nanny system fault coming east on I-80 about 15 miles before the Laramie Love's/Pilot/Petro exit? Around the 295-297, every time I come thru there it throws a lane departure/crash system malfunction fault and disables my cruise. A few miles past that there is an exit, and once you get down under a certain speed exiting, it clears the code. It's almost like there is some sort of EM interference that disables it. It doesn't do it at the same mile marker going west...just east bound

    Once in while there. I usually have to reset it at the first picnic area after Quealy Dome Rd, going east. Another place mine usually craps out is around the 380mm, just past the T/A, regular as clockwork

    On a positive note, it didn't even do anything to the mudflap or bracket

    I was pulled right in a bay at the T/A in Brooklyn, IA and out of there with plenty of time to deliver. Got to my receiver 45 min before my appointment, departed 15 after (would have been quicker but a JB and another Crete had to line up on a narrow drive to get their paperwork and sealed. The JB just sat there doing his load call, but the Crete realized I needed to back in a door and backed up to do his.) Next load, Davenport to Fairburn GA. Just under 900 miles. Will put me just over 10k for the month.



    Sitting here in Walcott, it looks like it might get interesting in a bit if it doesn't fizzle out when the sun goes down

    Went thru NE twice lately and I didn't get any scale warning messages on the nanny box. Did they do away with them, or were they reserved for just Shaffer drivers?

    Also, just after midnight I got the severe weather warning message on the Peoplenet about that storm coming across IA, but, it indeed fizzled before it got to me. It's a shame, being a FL boy, I was looking forward to a good t-storm and all we got was a little rain.
