    This is what happens, when EVERYONE is given Participation trophies, and no one is talk hard work. Backing under a trailer isn't that hard, IF YOU ARE TRAINED Properly and Listen to the instructor or trainer...#wussificationofamerica

    I like to think I’m not old yet, since I have probably another 25 years of trucking to go, but I do appreciate that sir. :)
     
  6. you've been in our open deck sand box, you have shown your intestinal fortitude around some salty dogs. even with more time left on your belt. Always nice to see you toss your hat into the ring.

    Line the left tire up against the edge. Listen for the click. Do a tug test. Is it that hard? And duck your frickin head under and look at the pin and jaws. Good grief.

    That only works with a 96”. For a 102” you have to allow a couple inches.
