    I feel more in control by opening the internal last, You can shut it down a whole lot quicker

    Because your internal will shut the tank a lot quicker and on most of our tanks the internal valve is located away from all the hoses

    Most of the rear valve tanks I've pulled were usually no touch, customer unloads/ loads

    I've had a couple rear unloads where all I had to do was supply one hose and they do all the rest, lately I've been pulling resin into paint plants and they are no touch and always preloaded and sitting in our yard
