Backs completely burnt. Probably driving with tandem brakes on.

It is a reefer for sure, no reason other for a fuel tank on it. I have a feeling the reefer suffered a fire event in the engine or emissions etc. You cannot run reefers as long and as hard as we do without at least one burning up now and then.
Now there is other damage which leads me to think on the situation to have a story behind just a fire. Some of you are pretty good at writing it from the evidence for all to see. -
Why would the front and back burn with hot brakes , not surprised some of the reefers I spot are leaking oil like the Exxon Valdez , amazing some alligator armed outfit would run a 20 year old trailer on perishables.
