    If it still builds air it's not broke, nothing to fix, just annoys people.

    I've driven plenty of leaky trucks. If it's leaking air the valve will pop off less often or not at all.

    Ok now I feel your pain... I'm at a small out of the way truck stop, hardly any trucks here... I'm broke down waiting on parts so I cant move to another spot... And this freaking Cascadia parks right beside me... Air purge going off every 30 to 40 seconds... Its going to be a long night.

    I mean come on man, you could have parked in any of a dozen spots with no other trucks nearby and you chose to park beside the truck with an old loud Carrier reefer running wide open???

    Is it me or do those cascadia's have the loudest spitters you've ever heard, and they seem to do it constantly.

    Yes they are horribly loud... Even old iron arent that loud and hardly ever bother me... But this Cascadia could wake the dead!

    When I had a Reefer, I always tried to be considerate of others. I tried to park by another Reefer, or truck that was idling. If I saw only one spot, that had 2trucks off, I’d try to nose in, so they wouldn’t be bothered. Sometimes none of that is possible, but when it is, common courtesy should dictate a drivers actions. But that is in short supply, these days
     
    SteveScott Thanks this.
