[QUOTE="CruiserClass, post: 1803139, member: 61332"] Going through old posts I see that '19 is the first year for the AEB stopping the truck on it's own. I had narrowed my options to '19+ based on the active suspension and improved display, but honestly I'm not sure I want to futz with AEB. I can't think of a safe way to test it on a test drive (let me drive at this wall and see what happens...) but does it actually slam on the brakes if it thinks you are going to hit something? Can it be completely disabled without modification and without affecting other systems? Is it forward motion only or does it also check for things behind it? If it takes over the truck against, I may decide to revert to the '18. I want to drive the truck myself, not have a computerized captain overriding my decisions. A mentor of mine, someone I deeply respected and looked up to, was killed when he stopped for a stalled vehicle in the road and got smoked by a semi behind him that couldn't stop. It hit him so hard it broke the bolts holding the driver's seat in place and launched him into the back of the car. He was dead at the scene, probably never knew he got hit. Had he evasively steered and clipped the stalled car but kept on going he'd have very likely survived. I want to maintain the option to ram something if I so choose, for that reason and others. I see some folks in the oldest threads saying it was pretty intrusive, but given the frequency of software updates on vehicles today wanted a more current opinion. If it starts to brake but you stab the gas, will it get the message you want to keep going or will it still force you to a stop? [/QUOTE]
