Well I personally NEVER dropped a trailer loaded with 47,000 pounds of coated pipe! AND I never spent two hours cussing and screaming and slloooowwwwllyyy raising that blasted trailer back up just to find out I busted off the gladhands.....
Yeah, THAT was a fun call to breakdown....misterG Thanks this. -
I’d be surprised. Find out the part number for your DEF cap. Call some dealers to see who carries it. You’ll need the last 6 of your VIN. In the meantime, use some plastic or shrink wrap with a bunch of rubber bands to prevent spilling DEF while driving.

Yeah, I got to a Kenworth dealer. Don't know why I've been forgetting fuel caps and DEF caps lately. I even know I double checked the fuel caps...and then missed the def despite passing it to get in the truck.
PE_T Thanks this. -
I just got fuel not even 30 mins ago. I got my receipt and parked, walked over to McDonald's and came back and saw a trail of diesel on the ground. I was like "well some idiot left his fuel cap off!!" Then I followed the trail right to my driver's door. Oh well lol mistakes happenRideandrepair, misterG and PE_T Thank this.

I did that before lol I saw oil on the ground where I was unloading and opened the hood and put it back on. Everything under the hood was covered. I came into work the next day and the mechanic was like "we replaced your steering box, it was leaking like crazy!!" All I said was thank you lolRideandrepair and PE_T Thank this.

Check all your fuel caps before rolling out of the fuel pumps even if you “think” you already checked them after hanging up each hose.Rideandrepair Thanks this.

Could that potentially give you a point on your license if a DOT cop sees it?
