Again, ask me anything.
To your knowledge, have there been any truckers adept enough with tech that have been able to mitigate or completely bypass some of these governers/restrictions/monitors? Maybe someone who figured out how to manipulate the data input/output of one or more of these devices?
Yes; it depends on the make, model, year, and conpany's unique flashing of the trucks. Some trucks have famous workarounds, while others are practically foolproof.
Paccar trucks (Peterbilt/Kenworth) tend to have the most work arounds/bypasses. Follwed up by Volvo/Mack. Freightliner is the worst and totally compromised; a well-flashed truck leaves no tricks or bypasses unless explicitly programmed in.
International? Unknown. Those trucks are shit, and I don't care.
Thanks man. One more, and I'll go away.
If a trucker were to ask Hackaclause for a Hacksmas gift, what would that be?
Tough one. Fuck around with one variable, and the rest look fucky. One thing won't arouse suspicion at first, but all movement is logged and discrepencies will eventually be discovered.
Hackaclause could dismantle the D.O.T., E.P.A. (I never mentioned how detrimental DEF has been on the industry)... all new trucks are doomed by default anyway. I suppose I'd wish for him to become a powerful lobbyist for OOIDA and fight the ATA and US Gov.
