It's what we do when we're bored and the old lady don't want to play bump and tickle.
Sooner or later the right answer will fall out.....eventually.......maybe.

And honestly I like to see it. It makes forums more fun.
This forum is unmatched for help on our MVs. But the banter is what makes it a great place to hang out.

Yeah this has been a pretty good one.
As for your question, as you've already heard they do have air brakes. They just have a older style referred to as "wedge brakes" it has to do with the way they move the shoe. Typically now on a civilian truck you would find airbrakes using the improved "s cam" style brakes.
