    I worked both of them this year. The nicest thing is so many other drivers are off that there's never a problem finding a parking spot at a truck stop or rest area, no matter what time you get in. And the roads are fairly empty, too.
     
    Wickedfire77 Thanks this.

    The cold air has made my red air line crack at the glad hand. It gets worse if any stress is put on it (IE turning the trailer) I may need to bobtail and get this repaired or have the load re powered so I can bob over to get it repaired at the yard.

    Now that I've seen how easy it is to fix that, I'm doing it myself from now on.
