Freightliner Trucks Discussion Thread

it doesnt replace it, it adds the new parts, just like SCS did it with the DAF XF and the TGX E6, you can build your own 2019 or 2022 version (even though the parts are called 2020)

Ah I think he had them, as I'd seen this retro in Mods on a cascadia 2021.

The question is: Will the new digital dashboard come with distance to empty fuel information?

Do you really want to cause a revolt?

[HagenXXV]

Finally some news on the Cascadia, hopefully the new design will incorporate the correct side deflectors for the mid cab model, I know they won't but a ladder shaped toolbox between the fuel tank and the fender would be cool (hopefully we can have chrome fenders by the way).

it would be a good christmas present, SCS come on, I've been good this year xD

It's a pity that the camera mirrors, like the Daf XG are not on this cascadia 2022, I hope SCS will add it in the future.

To add to what Carl1992 said, I believe the digital mirrors are not (yet) legal in the US.

no they dont, Freightliner never had this option, there is a 3rd party that tests its own system with a Cascadia but not Freightliner

What’s not legal is “to not have mirrors”, that’s why Peterbilt and Kenworth have small mirrors even though they have a fully functional camera system.

The digital gauges display is missing the startup animation!
And the navigation display is very low res and doesn't fill the entire display! What a bummer, I hope it's just a WIP

[xXCARL1992Xx]

the GPS fills the whole display, there is no display with ultra thin bezels, it has thick 1. Gen iPad bezels

if you mean the menu stuff, if they make it even bigger the GPS will be more pixel soup

[F4R35]

@xXCARL1992Xx Wrong! the display has very thin bezels all around just like the Actros 5! and the map fills the entire display!

Look at this pic from the blog! [ external image ]

SCS added blue highlights to hide the fact that the GPS doest stretch all the way left and right, then removed them in the latest build we got!
