{"replyTo":"","text":"Never take advice from someone that tells you not to set your brakes. The reason trailer brakes freeze is because no one, including myself because not cold enough on my route yet, drains the trailer air tanks. If you've never done it you could probably collect half a cup of rusty condensation from the tanks. Same goes for truck tanks.","replyToPid":0}
