    What's going to happen if your driving in the snow or slick roads? Are you going to react in time before you start to jackknife?

    If you are crazy enough to be driving on snow or ice with the cruise control on, please wave from the ditch as I drive by.

    When my cruise is on, On-Guard will keep me 242 feet behind the vehicle in front of me.

    Well the Bendix system it's a fuse. Kills it all together like it never existed. The other systems idk, our other trucks like the cascadias have them and have heard about them. Mine faulted 3 different times after being fixed only not to let me run cruise. To me it's just a pain the beeps and brake checks out of know where. I didn't mind it when it functioned properly my driving style wasn't that far off of what it wants you to do like back off or braking in irratic traffic. It's just soo much better without it.
