Trucks that don't have a button to lower your airbags

Friend of mine got a 2019 W-900 ... Hasn’t got a manual fan switch...lol.

I use mine all the time when climbing hills and the temp hits 200.

 

Why would he order a truck without it?

 

It does suck if a heavy trailer is too low but you should be able to use the low gear (usually by pulling out) and the crank enough to get the fifth wheel plate to pick it up. If it were super low I suppose you couldn’t crank it but I’ve never seen that.

 

Does no one pull a trailer with adjustable landing gear anymore?
Get out and crank it up a few inches...holy crap people are lazy nowadays. When I learned to drive we all did it regularly. If its too high, crank it down
...too low crank it up.
If your arms are broken you shouldn't be driving anyway.

 

It's a Schnieder truck, what would you do?

Moar throttle!111

 

Check and see if there is a remote looking device under or around your driver seat. If it is that’s how you lower the bags press the middle top button to turn it on up and down for the bags then the button with two arrows to reset em and then turn it off... they don’t tell you and I only found out while being layed over at a tankwash I’ll try to tank a pic of min if you don’t find it

 

Nah... They just cant hear it through thier ear buds.

 

I've been driving OTR for a year in a truck with no manual control of air bags and maybe once or twice I had trouble and had to struggle to crank the trailer up to couple.

Since I never drove with control of airbags, I prefer not to deal with it. No problems and one less thing to think about.

 

I would consider not having one a problem and more to deal with. lol

 

Omg can't drive without it?

For decades drivers didn't even have air bags and they all got by.
