We've all done it..

That explains a lot in itself!

 

Did they at least give you a gob of fifth wheel grease? That'd come under the heading of "benefits."

 

Good thing!

Tug without lube could hurt...and cause permanent damage!

 

I see we have an expert on that here!!

 

Decades of experimentation.....I mean self study.....make that............................aw forget it!

 

I was pulling containers years ago and went in the T/A truckstop at Cottondale, AL for a bite to eat. Came out to find someone had put a ice pick thru pne of the container chassis tires and then took a grease gun and wrote very neatly on the back door "Always check your tires". Don't know what the deal was but, I bothered no one when I pulled into that spot and I have never made any trucking enemies that I know of. I guess some people just gotta be mean!

 

I always check my fifth wheel and airlines before I pull out, thanks for the heads up, I will be doing a full walk around from now on!
