agreed. but with drivers in the past selling items off the truck, in fact, the mega company Schneider, for the longest time, stopped installing even simple cjeap AM radios, as drivers were selling them for either fuel or food...and that ain't no lie.
but i am going back to the late 1980's to mid 1990's.
in fact too, i worked for a company, owned by the man, who founded Overnite. that company he owned was Highway Express.
NO radios what so ever, you had to buy one, they would wire up and supply the connections, and you have a radio you can switch out from truck to truck.
so also to keep down expensive inventory, many companies i worked for, put a strict limit on what you could have. then, return the broken part, and get another one for your care package.

Sometimes if ones leaking, you can loose it just a little leaving it hooked up, and push it tight again. Doing it fast, leak stops.
