    Was it the landing gear that got him hung up?

    Anybody for a "tossed salad?" Sort of gives a whole new meaning to "losing your head!"

    You notice that the driver stated he was "following his GPS?" I wonder if his landing gear was up all the way, or if he didn't crank it all the way up. I would think that a driver could see how big a "hump" he had to go over there, and would realize that it was too much for his truck to clear.

    Ah well, as has already been said, at least no one was killed or injured in this one. Looks like the tractor may have even escaped damage.
