    I’ve already looked into cruise king. It’s says in their site that they no longer offer it. I have a freightliner cabover that I just purchased with Cummins 359 in it, 8 speed. What have you guys done to urs? Let me know. Thanks in advance. 7A34902A-11D7-4395-8D15-60905F899E41.png

    Great looking truck, you can haul the long beams hanging over ft., But if all else fails you can cut a broom stick to fit under dash to go pedal, then you must push it off to fire/wall before you get on brakes, a rope screwed on to bottom of dash holds stick so you don't have to reach down to floor to reset cruz, the only place i knew that made the kit quit making them?

    When I was in training my fellow students riding along would give me Krap for always setting the Cruise.

    I told them I set the cruise for driving down the driveway to get the mail out of the box.
