    I still have one too. And also a full face respirator. Maybe I'll put it on with my chem suit and go to Walmart in the morning.

    Just checked the board for where I live.
    Normally, there's at least 20 or so loads to choose from.
    Today its 3. All going to the same place.

    Looks like life might get real strange real soon.

    Couple of notes:

    The air release doesn't do anything to keep the king pin locked. Even if the handle doesn't come out, odds are it released just a little. If you hit the switch, make sure you completly uncouple and recouple before driving.

    If you hold the button for a 3 count after the warning message pops up, its more reliable.

    Make sure you releave all the pressure on the jaws before you hit the button.

    Yes sir.... I am aware... I do a thorough search and interview potential companies... I'm not going to move my home into any truck with any company that may throw my stuff away if anything happens...
    But I have been blessed so far... never had an accident... or any incident like that...
    Reminds me when I teamed with a guy from Cuba in my second company... it was company's truck but it was assigned to him... However, he got mad with dispatcher and told him to F off... then, parked the truck on a strip mall near a car rental place... took his things, including his little refrigerator out of the truck... I still can't figure how he was able to fit that inside a 4 door vehicle... And he drove away... and I drove the truck back to company's terminal and that became "my" assigned truck... One of the best I ever drove... It wasn't governed... a few in the company knew that... :D
