The opti-idle will beep when battery voltage gets low then truck starts and runs for awhile.Truck a/c & heat doesn't work during this time.Can't get thermostat mode to work.My guess is this is disabled

The new Cascadias that Crete is currently buying are opti-idle trucks without battery packs. Man...I haven't had an opti-idle truck in so long I'm still trying to figure out how to use mine and may need to ask you guys a few questions.
Also, to reiterate what I've heard once again this week is: no more Prostars because once they get 150,000 miles on them all kinds of problems arise. -
I can't tell ya'll how glad I got out of there when I did.

I got a14 prostar with the auto start. I like it, it's better than the low battery beep. I think it will also start to warm the engine if it's really cold, not positive of that though. it's been a good truck so far, but only 28000 or so miles on it.

I'm climbing the walls here. It's been five weeks (includes the week of vacation) since I was last out. Four weeks of a liquid diet. Two weeks since my surgery. With one week to go on liquids. Thanksgiving day will be my day to actually have something I can chew. I'm down over 35 pounds so far. I walk one mile a day which I hope to continue doing when back on the road. Oh and I have another month before I can be released to full dutyLast edited: Nov 22, 2013

I believe I am getting the Ralph treatment. The Streak is now up to 12 consecutive loads Under 600 miles. I'm back to looking at other options again. My time here sure has been rocky.

Talked to an old Crete buddy yesterday. He is at the Sealy Texas Walmart DC doing local Walmart store drop and hooks for the next 5 days. Needless to say he is NOT a happy camper.....
