Ask DH how many OTR rigs have a lady driver. Many trucking companies now want to have team drivers that are husband and wife. I suggest he simply wants to do all the driving.
As others have said air brakes are different not harder to use. By the way even on a gasser with anti lock brakes you do not want to pump them. FTL chassis probably has anti lock brakes also. Our does.

We traded in our gasser for a larger diesel pusher. Hubby wanted one... He says that when he steps on the brakes that he really has to push hard to slow it down. Is this "normal" for a diesel pusher or is this a problem? He also says that because of this he doesn't think I should try to drive it. Thank for the help.
