    My boss just switched me from my 05 T600 to the 2010 T660. (Against my will). I have a question for drivers who have them. Am I crazy or do I actually have to push the brake pedal to kick on the jake?

    Every time I have the jake on, I let off the throttle and nothing, touch the brake pedal and it kicks on. Is that a new feature or is something up with it?

    Thanks for the help.

    Shut cruise control off when not using it also might
    Do the trick.

    yeah its just the way its programmed, your '05 could have been programmed the same way. just bring it to the dealer and they can change that.

    Thanks for the reply. I will have to get it changed cause I find it a pain to hit the brake just to run the jake.
