    Do you mean pedal and cruise?
    If you do, my cruise will go a little faster than the pedal.

    In 753,000 miles the only emissions issues my DD15 has had have been 2 wiring harnesses that have gone out. The total cost repair cost of both was $700 and total downtime of both was 1 day. It's only done 1 active regen in that 753k miles. I just sit back and turn miles and collect money without problems.

    Like it would do 63MPH in hilly regions but I noticed on flat surfaces it would go up to 67MPH. I haven't figured out why yet. Does Peterbilt have fuel rewards like Volvo?

    Yes but it’s at the discretion of the truck owner to utilize it. It’s in the drivers display menu as a screen called “driver rewards” They can set it up however they choose based on MPG’s, idle...etc.
