To: HANG THE EXPENSE

Air pressure is hooked up to release the emergency brakes only, no service brakes on the trailer. Bluetooth brake lights with no electrical hookup for the trailer so marker lights aren’t energized. That pin... OMG, that pin...

Basically, the pickup’s brakes are handling the entire load, a load being transferred to a 3/4” piece of low grade steel with two pivot points. A rolling traffic accident waiting to happen.

” A rolling traffic accident waiting to happen.”

That is a bit presumptuous.

For all we know, this gentleman has years of accident-free service.

And the new latch on his pin shows he stays on top of maintenance/safety.
