    Not talking about the QC, talking about on the indicator lights on the dash.

    I know in a freightliner Cascadia you need to flip the high low gear switch to high before hitting the cruise control button to activate it. After that the truck will start and stop
    Itself.

    I am not familiar with the model truck your driving must be a prototype. LOL

    If by prototype you mean piece of crap, then yes, you would be correct.

    Is it a Freightliner or an International? You posted it as both.

    Well on the icon on the hood it says freightliner and at the back of the cab it says international. But on the stuff inside the cab says international, so I guess that's what it is. Maybe they switched out the hood emblem.

    Chalk your tires with something and leave the break system disengaged.

    1) I don't have anything I can use, this is only my first solo run. And;
    2) I'm at a truck stop so I don't think I would risk some ####### pulling them while I sleep.

    Not sure if this would work but you could search for the correct size/weight rock and set it on the peddle just to bring up the rpms up a little. Not sure if this would fool the computer but worth a shot

    Or use a piece of wood; wedge it from the pedal to the dash.
