    Go to the glass division. Because they go to Canada they don't run singles.
    Personally myself I like singles nicer ride better MPG.

    the problem is not the ABS it the driver. I drove for decades without ABS and I can stop a empty truck without flat spotting tires. Personally myself I don't like ABS brakes. Maybe it's the younger guys that need a computer to take care of it or don't they have an app for that! LOL

    I just want it to work if it's installed. Defective machinery bugs the heck out of me.

    Sewerman is right, you should have no problem stopping and not locking up the trailer tires. But it's quite evident a lot of people do have a problem with it as indicated with all the flat spotted tires out there.

    If words of wisdom are what you are looking for you'll have to go else where. If you want my opinion here it is:

    Maverick has already made up their mind about your husband that's why he was approved. As long as he was honest about what he's been up to for the past 4.5 years and has a good attitude he's in. Oh, and congratulations, welcome back!

    I have met several vets that drove in the military and same story. Too bad the companies and/or DOT don't recognize your service.

    The only problem with that is you will loose a day without pay.
