    I made that mistake too with a bag phone. After the 2nd 2-300$ bill I ditched mine.

    Depends on what the gauge monitors. Can be helpful in anticipating problems by its readings drop. Warning lights like oil pressure, it is there or or it is gone.

    brakes

    Not tryna be a dick, but that gets my hackles up, because truck drivers should know the correct spelling.

    You might be using voice-to-text, or fighting your autocorrect......in which case, I apologize, and I'll shut up now.

    Case in point..... autocorrect tried to change "fighting your autocorrect" to "fighting your autism"....

    I traded my empty to another driver who was out of hours, and ended up with his trailer, loaded with liquid whole eggs.

    This load is nearly a full day late, and I figured I'd be sitting here in the yard until The Orb goes down in the west.

    However, I have just been informed by plant personnel that there is a tanker currently unloading, and when he pulls out, I can back in.

    Still might be a coupla hours, but at least it won't be "Orbset"
