Hey guys and gals.
I'm due to start at a new company next week and moving into a 18 5700xe. Does anyone know the mattress size on them? I've googled and asked but to no avail. I know it's a single bunk with rear storage. Short of driving the 3 hour's to measure I'm S.O.L the office don't know either as the truck is only arriving on Saturday.
Thanks in advanc
Dan.

Peterbilt 579 regen
Hi all.
I have been idling for 3 days in 75/85°f, I haven't been idling when it gets down to around 70°f, so overnight. My truck hasn't asked for a regen once ! Is this due to the high temperatures? I'm concerned I'm going to leave tomorrow and spend an hour doing a regen when I hit the highway. I can't force a regen I have tried a few things, pressing and holding the switch, turning the switch to manual for an hour, turning the ignition key of and on 3 times with starting on the 4th and holding the switch. Nothing.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
