To my surprise, this specific system is used in the larger corporations to save them money. Yes, there is a switch on the instrument panel of the Ford Super Duty. Simply, choose the setting (On, Off, or AUTO) and the truck attempts to maintain a certain speed while traveling down a hill, which does not require the driver to apply braking power by depressing the brake pedal. Ultimately, the new Engine Brake technology saves cost by saving the Ford Super Duty's disk pads (brake linings); brakes last longer.
First off, welcome to a new era of brake control and saving costs with the 2017 Ford Super Duty. Frankly, I have never found a truck like the new Ford, as a worker at a dealership. Aside from the looks and the power of the Ford Super Duty, this particular truck comes with cost saving features. What I am talking about is the new engine brake system. Chiefly, after hearing the brief description during a conference meeting, I knew exactly what the guy was talking about at the time. An engine brake: "When activated, the engine brake restricts the turbocharger's exhaust flow to generate back pressure and slow the vehicle."
