    Wyoming is a little wild. I picked a cat litter load out of Wyo-Ben in Lovell. That sends you down US-212 and 310 into northern WY, and those are not real nice roads on a dark and snowstoming night. I woke up the next morning to 8* F with all 4 trailer brakes frozen solid. Free showers at the Exxon down the road though.

    use your brakes before you park to warm them up to melt the snow off, then just set the tractor brake for about an hour while the trailer brakes cool off, THEN set the trailer brakes and they wont freeze.

    Yeah that's true. I wasn't even thinking about it to be honest but that's learning the hard way.

    Did you go to work for somebody else?
