Air operated king pin release
 On tractors equipped with an air operated king pin release is the activation switch located on the dashboard or on the back of the tractor close to where the driver will be working? 8)

At our warehouse, the mule has one. The guy who drives it every night, he only gets out just to put on/take off the gladhands.

I'm talking about the kingpin release where you don't have to reach way the hell underneath the trailer to pull the handle which sometimes results in a hernia when it don't wanna release! 8)
