    They had multiple crashes...my traffic delay indication on my GPS was up to 85 minutes at one point. A tanker rear-ended a truck hauling Christmas trees was what the CB report was. Never saw it...and when I say Knoxville..I am including all the time from I-81 until the I-40/75 split down by Lenoir City....maybe not all is considered Knoxville, but a trip that normally is done in under an hour.

    It was pouring rain and everyone was coming home from grandma's house.

    I think it's gremlins...1st the interior light was 'strobing' at random (for a couple days) now that has stopped for the time being, but my nav screen is going nuts. I can live with it for a while as long as the truck starts and I can drive it.

    The new system that is in your truck was intended as an improvement, unfortunately they still have a lot of bugs in it and you may need a software update... The problem is many of the Peterbilt dealerships know nothing about the system so bring your patience.

    Hold the middle of the round button on the control panel it will reboot it. No need to stop

    Yeah mine does that too. Ya know, in addition to the bluetooth and navigation not working.

    You got caught in that, too? It was heavy traffic from north of Nashville to 100 miles into NC. It took every minute of my 11 hour drive time. Several accidents and several more caused by rubber neckers. I found out just how good these trucks can stop.

    Call me crazy, but I expect everything to work correctly in a brand new vehicle. I expect it from a Freightshaker, and I sure expect it out of a Pete.

    At least with a Pete, the truck is still driveable...if it were an International, every time that thing locked up, the engine would shut down and the wheels would fall off.:eek:

    I have found out with mine, that if I start the truck immediately, the radio/nav system has issues. I turn the key to right, wait for the dash to clear, then start the truck. Seems to work.
