    Nah, let the #### thing fall down. If they yell at you to put it back up, say ok will be at the shop a while.

    This is what I like to call the "To cool for school" attitude. It's this type of mentality that brings JB into the ever upgrading safety world. I for one cannot stand all the bells and whistles on these new trucks but then I look in the next lane and here comes a garbage hauler 2 inches up a cars ###. Trying to push him down the road. Then I look ahead and there is another O/O switching lanes with no turn signal and driving aggressively. I say to myself, this is why I have all this crap. Thanks drivers.......
     
    Night Prowler and GCDMN. Thank this.

    Finally, someone said it! I agree 100 percent! These are the things we see when we're stuck in the right lane at 62 mph.

    i drive a 15 Cascadia only had 120k when I started driving it. the truck is a typical crapcadia, rides like crap. but is reliable. the seats suck. now the bendix system will slam on brakes anytime someone in front takes an off ramp, so you have to be ready to turn off cruse. it beeps at all kinds of stupid stuff. worst part is 62 mph and they govern the rpm's. wont get out of its own way. have to wait pulling out of parking lots etc. give yourself plenty of time. the biggest problem is you just never know when the governor will cut in, when you least expect it, EXPEXT IT ! im looking at going into the lease side, but haven't heard much about it,
