    just got a 2018 cascadia automatic and the cruise won't set higher then 58 mph, although it says +2 after it. Is there something I'm missing? Thanks for any help you can offer.

    It is not just Prime trucks, but apparently the 2018's don't have the ability to program the pedal to the metal speed different from the cruise control speed. In the 2017's and previous there was a separate setting for them. I am not sure if there will be an update to fix it or not, but Freightliner is aware of the issue, Prime needs to be the squeaky wheel.

    Its just about the same as the 2015 I had (except for the trans), which takes a while to get used to but I'm starting to like it . It rides better, the radio has bluebooth, takes the hills better than my 15 did and pretty good fuel mileage.
