    Oh yeah. Waved to him as we drove by. Clearly pissed but out of the truck and in a safe spot.

    That's good to hear, I noticed the cover for the battery box was off, maybe an electrical fire, most important is the driver being ok, bet that was a site to see as you where driving by lol

    That's one of the reasons I carry a big pair of bolt cutters. Those battery cables are getting cut

    That's what happens when there is an AUTOSHIFT issue. Your trains goes into fault you pull to the side of the road start messing wit the batteries and the rest of the truck catches fire. Trust me I know hahah

    I've seen lots of trucks burn. Mostly fuel or oil leaks
