In seven months driving, I have not experienced it nor saw it happen. A walk around the trailer is good exercise, ain't it?

Youch.. a trailer disconnect? That's one of my biggest fears and I will absolutely be checking that kingpin EVERY time I return to the truck.

Your second biggest trailer fear might be forgetting to d/c the hoses. (I have that experience.)

Is d/c disconnect? I'm still working on this trucking lingo thing lol.

Yep, D/C is disconnect. Here is some other lingo you'll probably hear out there: http://www.truckercountry.com/trucker-resources/cb-terminology/

I had a really long day once and unhooked my air lines but left my electric line plugged in... imagine my surprise when i pulled out and saw that thing pop off there haha
