    Put some paper in front of the windshield sensor and your lane change issues will be over.

    You won't have it long. Passed the Valley Freightliner in Mount Vernon, WA. Looks like a Gordon yard. Heartland is looking to get rid of the GTI trucks and replace them with Prostars.

    Freightliner in Troy IL has about 40 Cascadia in Gordon Blue waiting to ship to Pontoon Beach yard, plus the yard has a few dozen new Cascadia waiting for drivers (getting numbers and decals, etc). Gordon family owns that Freightliner store in Washington near the yard. I doubt their Freightliner business is going anywhere soon.

    Only issue is most of the new ones are single bunk, with doubles reserved for teams and trainers. So life will get interesting for us when my current ride gets sold. Reckon we'll be learning to spoon while wearing a CPAP mask.

    Thats crappy on the company's part. They want drivers to be happy, but lets stick them in a single bunk truck when they have a passenger. No thanks!!!

    The red Heartland trucks are all team trucks.

    My point was that is was a Cascadia, not a Prostar.

    Red ones are for teams and trainers. I'll probably start lobbying for one in a month or two, since my terminal manager drove a truck for years and understands why we really kind of need a double bunk.
