    Super fine particulates...... Kinda like asbestos gives off (and DPF filters)?

    No health hazard there

    Yeah, I had two pair of insulated gloves. As I worked on unwrapping and getting the frozen tarps off the load, I would climb into the cab as soon as my fingers started to loose feeling. My spare insulated gloves were on the heater vents. I could swap gloves and quicky bake my frozen fingers with heated gloves.

    I wore a face mask up under my nose to guard against the cold. The forklift drivers both wore hazmat breathers to against breathing the fine particulates of the product I delivered,

    Minot has one of the best, if not the best private truck stops in the nation though.

    Looks friendly, albeit chilly, where I'm headed. Let's hope it doesn't snow

    There's a dude next to me with a new Western Star.

    We're in a marshaling yard. He's been idling since I got here, and it just doesn't sound good.

    Now I think it's doing a self regen and I think it's going to explode.

    The cats are urging me to move before it explodes and takes us with it.
     
    Lepton1, InTooDeep, dwells40 and 4 others Thank this.

    Would think that if an actual explosion occurred, you would be making a large insurance claim.
