    I believe they are. They did a great job with them imo of making them look like a Mack.

    Pull it back into manual and it wont do that... In auto it will downshift 1 or 2 gears and hit the jakes all at once if you all of a sudden slam the jakes on... I'm sure this can be adjusted in the computers as well.

    Mine never sees 2k rpm.

    Just a guess here, but that is not what it’s supposed to look like.

    Like I said. It was only a test.
    Otherwise I ever came close to asking that much of the jake.
    It’s also Volvo’s programming on a Volvo engine/trans.
    Loved the variable adjust on the jake. Adjust on the fly.
     
    Cattleman84 and Dave_in_AZ Thank this.

    Hoods (poodle trucks). Meh. I understand people like them. They just don’t look tough like a new Aero. I’m glad people like them. Good. Someone needs to keep truck stops open. I’ll take the modern aero trucks with their MPG and their pitbull sexy loooks...

    Guess it time to post this compilation photo I made....
