Congratulations Chris on your promotion

Thank you

[@johnabelljr1997]

Great video! Only one thing wrong. The red air line is the air supply line for the trailer. Not emergency air

[@AZVIDS]

It is called the “emergency line”.

[@Will-pz3cz]

Blue line is service brakes. Red line is emergency/spring/parking brakes. Both are to supply air to the trailer.

Pls make vedio on what paperwork’s we need to carry in truck all the time

[@rockyflash5672]

How do you realize the air from the bags ?

I’m not lazy but I’ve always wondered why they haven’t made landing gear air assist or electronic now

[@Woodchopper46]

There have been air operated landing gear, but they suffer from dirt in the system, leaks & freezing in cold weather.

[@xXManxAxPartXx]

@@Woodchopper46 really I didn't know that

[@rainysunday6186]

The internationals don’t allow you to dump your air. Bad idea doing a tug test with your landing gear down good way to bend your landing gear

[@AZVIDS]

You want to tug it with gear up? Then if not connected falls down…

​@@AZVIDSya gotta be awake

[@user-mu7nm8fn3y]

😂😂😂

[@speedywise1679]

I like the video but I wish you explained how to go into low or high gear for landing gear. Visually showed the locking jaws locked and explaining what the correct height is when backing under the trailer to couple

[@Rakki_Haitatsu]

Nice video except the background music was distracting and annoying

[@andrewprior5080]

Incomplete video.
