Living in a make believe world where their equipment is James Bond stuff. Reality.....your truck is like every other one. And it produces a certain amount of power regardless of what your pulling.

","text":"OK, I bow to your divine knowledge. You seem to know way more about about Electronics than I. But I was just simply trying to help the lady get along till she could get to a shop. Weight distribution matters. Besides, driving is my other job. Writing code was my main job.","replyToPid":250710}

96080 发表于 2019-11-13 11:22:13 I can only explain it better by saying, it's a 18 wheeled COMPUTER. Put it on a 3 tier CAT SCALE. No more than 12,000 on steers. No more than 34,000 on Drives or Trailer. If set-up properly, the COMPUTER will learn that your within tolerance of weight distribution. Then it will start running properly.

","text":"I have a newer 4900 EX. If I were grossed out at 80k but had 12k, 30k, and 38k on trailer, how could the truck possibly know where the weight is? You make no sense. ","replyToPid":250101}

{"replyTo":"","text":"What kind of transmission do you have? If it’s an automatic your boss may have set the profile to Economy mode, which will sometimes shift into neutral and wait until you’re 2 mph under your set cruising speed then shift back into gear in an attempt to save fuel. If that’s the case you can just tap the gear stalk or the accelerator pedal and it will force it back into gear manually. ","replyToPid":0}

{"replyTo":"","text":"k,  ... well, there are different settings for maximum speed at Cruise and with Petal. But, best thing You can do is displace your weight properly @ 5th wheel and/or trailer slider holes. This way, the computer will allow truck to run without  protecting itself from over- speed or over torqueing.","replyToPid":0}
