    I literally LOL'd. Whatever gets you to the place you can get it fixed, I suppose. Or, "the most permanent fix is a good temporary repair".

    Lol, glad it’s not your problem. I wonder if it just needs adjustment, bending the tabs, or if it broke off at the Trailer. I’ve had that happen.

    Remember when people were doing that because they were paranoid about people popping their gladhands during the peaceful protests a couple summers ago?

    I remember the video of a mob attacking a Truck. One was trying to unhook the glad hands. Bunch of idiots. Too bad they weren’t ran over. Oops!

    It could be that the gladhands detach during tight turns.
