Today was a ####ty yet amazing day. I woke up this morning and started my day. It was storming pretty hard. Got on top of Montreal River Hill and started losing all my air and it wasn’t building back up. Made it to the next pull-out. Little to no cell service. I get out, start checking things out.
I’m not gonna say what or how I fixed it, cuz this post isn’t about me. I’ll just mention it took 8 hours of laying down in a frozen puddle under my truck in -25 blizzard weather. Pretty sure I have some major frostbite cuz #### does it hurt. If the next town wasn’t 100km I’d a walked away from trucking today. Glad I didn’t. That would have been a cold long walk......

Although it may not be about you, if you gave the details of what the issue was and how you fixed it, that info will likely help someone else here to avoid an 8 hour ordeal of their own............and that's what this forum should be about.
Mattflat362 Thanks this. -
I'm sorry if my sharing his story doesn't meet your expectations of what this forum is for.magoo68 Thanks this. -
I was simply trying to get more information that would very likely be useful to someone on here, and in turn hopefully save them a ton of grief.....that's all.

What I thought obvious apparently wasn't.
I'm curious about his air issue but only know what was in the article. -
tinytim Thanks this.
