    It's how I shut mine off on my last three trucks.
    By this quote it sounds like you didn't understand how and what your supposed to do.

    I guess not because I did exactly what you said to no effect. Don't know what's different. And yes I was making a joke. Sometimes I amuse myself.:p

    I amuse myself quite offten as well, lol.
    It's two separate processes.
    First one to disengage onguard.
    Second is to use your cruise because when you turn of the onguard it disables your cruise too.
    So you do the second set of steps while your rolling down the hwy so you can use your cruise.
    The two arrow keys that you push in and hold while your starting your truck are on the side of the display on the dash.

    Reminds me of that lethal weapon movie where Danny Glover gets conned into stripping down to his boxers and running around like a chicken in scene with the guy with flamethrower

    Not trying to be a party pooper. But could both of you explain your math? Because to me that truck is gonna cost. 52 (weeks per year)×3=156 weeks. $525 (per week)×156=$81,900. Even with bad credit, zero down, and a high interest rate. $81,900 is wicked over paying for a 35-40k truck. But of course I don't have a dog in this hunt (pun intended). So it doesn't matter what I think.

    Lastly I see several times you mention good or nice settlements. Since everyone's idea of good is different. What are we talking here? $8-900, $12-1500, $17-2000, $2500- you get the idea.

    Fair enough. About 2000(+- depending on good not so good week) after nut before I set aside taxes and my own personal maintenance fund (separate from required maintenance fund whigh is included in nut). I had to resist exaggerating.

    Just so everyone is clear the 525 is all in ... truck payment, insurance and managed maintenance fund.

    Wrong. Not here to mislead. Truck payment 525. Maint Escrow to bcl leasing which is leasing company 175. Three year warrentee from freightliner that includes paying deductible on the off chance must activate Detroit diesel warrantee. Bcl threw in free towing for a year and free atbs services for 3 years. Insurances toll tag ifta plates drivers legal and hated People net through jbhunt 275. Total per week before fuel 975. Plus I have prepass on my own for 14 a month. Total nut a grand. After fuel, I had one week in excess of 4 grand. A couple over 3 grand. One at 2800 because of home time. I am kinda baring my soul here so treat me nice.
