    Yes but I do not like the new design.
    There were a lot of alterations in the design that are nothing more than a inconvience.
    Except for the auto 5th wheel release .(when it works)
     
    Speed_Drums Thanks this.

    It’s not exactly easy to release the brakes without pushing the buttons above.

    Must be a lot cheaper than autos. Only way Tonn would buy them.

    I have to wonder if Crete still has spring ride trailers.

    Actually, I think the automated transmissions are standard from freightliner, the manuals are optional. I think it has to do with federal fuel economy standards, not positive about this, but I've been told this. Still spring ride trailers at Crete.
