    Well guess i should do something, well technicalyl i have i've already cooked ham and eggs and toast for me and my daughter, i cleaned all the dishes,let out the dogs and now i'm gonna check the mail, I might go buy some lotto tickets. If i win the Lottery i could buy a Brand Spankin New truck and really be living large....Wait wait wait a minute.. Buy a new truck if i win the lottery what am i saying.............The new diesel engines suck. But i would buy the New 2012 Ford F350 King Ranch I've been wanting. As Drool drips out the corner of my mouth.

    i always set trl brakes then let the trk ease up and pull the tractor brake. that way you cant pull the 5th wheel.

    yea but this time of year i don't set trailer brakes if i can help it, that way the trailer breaks aren't frozen in the am. Also as a tip for new drivers, when you pull into a parking spot that is covered in fresh snow. if you back upr and pull forward 4-5 times and flatten the snow and pack it it will be easier to start in the am. if you see a plow come and the snow builds up in front of your truck do the same and give yourself an out.
