Top of the Grapevine, lost all air pressure!
The "Grapevine" is the mountain pass on the "5" descending into Los Angeles, the summit a little over 4,000 ft. On Sunday, around noon, I was just beginning the decent and felt the ride getting stiff...

The thing that you have to think about is that when your braking system air drops below a certain pressure,your "E" brake is going to come on and you're gonna come to a stop. It isn't going to slam on the brakes,but it's gonna be pretty sudden and,and in most cases,you're gonna be able to steer to the side of the road. I have had to pop the "E" brake in my school bus from 25 MPH so that I knew what it felt like and have done it in my MH from 20,so that I could know how to handle that one also since it weighs a bit more. Everyone should find a vacant parking lot and get their MH up over 10mph and pop the yellow button and feel what it's like.
