if you could have your truck do anything automatically...

Auto scale ? Consistent weight display ?

 

Turn itself into the winning billion dollar Powerball ticket

 

Nothing.

I would like a truck to drive, I am the operator and it is my skills needed, not the trucks, to drive it.

 

Yes sir,
The question was also about possibly anything else you might find an advantage to have happen for you... being able to depend on it happening whether you are there or not.

maybe something you would want to happen regardless of rolling or parked. Maybe with no notice from you at all. Maybe when you are not in the truck..

Sorta, "if you could train the truck to take care of something for you.. "

Is it possible I came across as "let's make your truck drive itself" ?
That is NOT what I intended.
I meant like your interior lighting, HVAC engine-off, genset, a media system, trouble-monitoring of something, etc. That something may be your truck or the bunk refrigerator.


But your answer seems to agree with all the posts prior to yours, so...
Again, only asking the question.

I don't have anything to sell.
I was curious if I could see an opportunity to change that.
I've done similar stuff for marine applications...
charging system monitoring, large marine Diesel controls, instruments and fault alarming, breaker-panel/fuse status monitoring and alarming, cooling-system controls.

-I'm just less able to do that sort of thing at the moment.
My uncle was a trucker, and I spend a little time here occasionally learning from ya'll, (not posting).

Sorry to waste everyone's time.
Again, thanks ya'll, stay safe.

 

Something where company drivers could pick the loads they wanted to run. Access to the same loads the company has access to. If the company doesn't have the loads, ability to contact a company approved broker to obtain a load. An after hours type thing.

 

I'm trying to "train" my truck to talk to me in a wicked sexy voice. "Oh that turn was so sexy, but not as much as that last back you did, it was so hot"! Then maybe the washer fluid could start spraying automatically. And make me a sandwich.

 

Let's see, I already converted my driver seat to enclose a porta potty, and I already turned my cab curtain into a projection screen that pulls down into a 70 inch hd projected screen. I guess all I want now is heated window wipers

 

Something to smack the $h!t out of my dispatcher remotely.

 

Most trucks I've driven don't have a momentary wiper function (mist). I have to turn the wipers on and off every minute or so for 11 hours in misting conditions. How expensive could it possibly have been to include this? Auto wipers would be even better.

Also auto climate control. Especially for people who keep the engine running at night. I think sleeper truck interiors are so big it takes a while for the temperature to stabilize, and I sometimes wake up at night to adjust the temp control.
